One hundred years ago the war ended with its power and world class unprecedented. A war involving more than 60 million soldiers worldwide.

In this article, we bring back to the origins, events, and consequences of World War I.

To understand the origins of World War I, we begin in 1871 at the end of the Franco-German war between the French Empire and the League of Nations in North Germany, which is annexed by southern Germany. After six months of war, France was defeated and the victors united to form the German Empire. Alsace and Moseley cling to a new empire, disrupting the French side. In the years that followed, Germany would greatly improve its industry and economy.

The country also forged alliances, first with the Austro-Hungarian Empire and then with Italy, frustrated by French colonizing Tunisia. These three form the travel lice or Triple Alliance. As it grows in power and status, Germany begins to colonize African areas. For its part, France has cooperated with the Russian Empire and signed a secret non-violent agreement with Italy, thus avoiding second-place plots in the event of a war. The British government feared the rise of German troops, especially the navy.

Britain leaves alone, approaches France, and then travels to Russia. Together, they built the Triple Entente. In the Balkans, the Austro-Hungarian Empire includes Bosnia and Herzegovina, making neighboring Serbia one day dreaming of uniting South Slavs. The project appeals to Russia, which is an international alliance with Serbia. On June 29, 1914, a young Serbian nationalist from Bosnia assassinated the heir to the Austrian throne and his wife in Sarajevo. Austria-Hungary accuses Serbia of plotting the attack again despite Russian threats announcing war next month. Within days, conflict erupted between countries of the Triple Intent and the Triple Alliance. Only Italy remains neutral at the moment.

 

Germany's plan is to defeat the French army, which is focused on the East, by planning an attack from the north. To achieve this, Germany invaded Luxembourg and Belgium, violating their neutrality in the conflict. The French, British, and Belgian troops are forced to retreat. Fearing the capture of Paris, the French government moved to Bordeaux. But the German army is leaving the city to continue its siege of the French army.

 

They were then attacked on the side by Paris troops forcing them to retreat north, indicating the failure of the Schrieffer system. The new German goal is to take strategic ports in Calais, Dunkirk and Boulogne to reduce British property.

 

The Belgian lower army cannot resist Germany's advancement. In the plain of Yser, the opportunity is opened to open the key gates to fill the polders. When the German army stood on its tracks, the forearm was engraved with the construction of a 700-kilometer canal, which ran from the North Sea to Switzerland. With the tanks stationed in the west, Germany is sending its troops east to fight the Russian invasion, putting pressure on Austria-Hungary.

After some doubts, the Ottoman Empire decided to support Germany in the war. This creates several new challenges: one in the Caucasus, another in Sinai against the British defender in Egypt for the purpose of controlling the Suez Canal; and finally third place in the British defense of Kuwait on the issue of oil resources. To weaken the Ottoman Empire, Britain supported the Arab rebellion by promising them freedom in liberated countries. Finally, Italy declares war on Austria-Hungary in the hope of finding a new territory. In Asia, Japan fought Germany and took control of its colonies in the Pacific and China.

In Africa, German colonies were invaded by French, British, and Belgian forces. Many people from colonial areas were drafted into the European army. France has a population of about 800,000, most of who are exported to Europe.

The British Empire, for its part, puts 2.7 million men in its empires and colonies. More than half are from British India. In the Balkans, Bulgaria returns to the war alongside the Central States. The country has a great desire for space and wants to expand in all directions. Serbia is attacked on both sides and immediately attacked. In the West, Germany continues to innovate. Be the first to launch bomber airplanes. London and Paris are under constant attack.

Wind power was initially used for tracking and retrieval, but planes were quickly loaded with machine guns, leading to the first air battles. In one of the first battles, Germany launched a naval operation in British waters, drowning the ships it encountered. Finally, in the trenches, both sides use toxic gases that cause many injuries. Despite some efforts to find an explosion, the front of the war remains fixed, at great personal cost.

In the trenches, soldiers who survived the war were forced to survive in difficult conditions. Mud, insects, rats, and the smell of decaying bodies put their emotions to the test. In the spring, the French side begins mutinies to be suppressed. Germany is also tired of this problem. The country is now embroiled in an economic war and is sending its Atlantic submarines to sink all sorts of ships, even commercial ones, bound for the United Kingdom. Tired of the war, Russia is plagued by more than 1.7 million soldiers. Morale is at its lowest ebb on the margins and in society. After that a brief coup took place that brought down the Tsars regime. At the same time, the United States of America is falling victim to the Atlantic trade embargo. They decided to go to war with the Allies. In Russia, a second coup allowed the Bolsheviks to enter the empire, which was soon to sign an agreement with the Central Empires. Once Russia was under control, Germany was focusing its forces on the west.

The country thrives on canals and approaches Paris, attacking it. But the German army is moving very fast toward the south. French troops invaded and dismantled German defenses. Terrified, German troops retreated north. From this moment on, the Allies lead in all sectors. In Germany, rebels and a wave of revolution forced the emperor to stop and allow the signing of the Armistice, marking the end of a "Great War" that killed more than 18 million people.

On June 28, 1919, a peace treaty was signed in Versailles. German delegates are invited and the country is forced to accept all the requirements of the winners. Germany and its allies are facing a war-only wound and have to pay heavy compensation. Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire were dissolved, paving the way for new lands or colonies. Germany, on the other hand, finds itself in a state of disgrace and debt. Its troops were dispersed and colonies were divided among the Allies. The country produces about 15 percent of its territory To France, Belgium, Denmark and Poland, redesigned?

The end of consolation Germany remains strong due to the lack of war in its territory, And its industry is still stagnant. The humiliation inflicted on Germany has already left him with a desire for revenge.
