World War One

World War One in Europe was a defeating accomplishment because of the overall death toll . This will focus on why there were so many deaths during this wars , both civilian and military , by bringing a discussion about weapons technology to the forefront of the and how modern technology clashed with old tactics . In to have a grasp of the world wars in Europe , a short history of communication and rivalry in Europe will be discussed in for a
