The First Step of Destruction
War is destruction in every time in the beautiful world. World War I (in short WWI) was the leading war which was hold in Europe on 28 July 1914. It was ended on11 November 1918. Duration of this war was near about four years. The world powers were involved in this war. The powerful countries were divided into two groups. One is called Allies and the other is called Central Powers. In Allies power, there were three countries- United Kingdom , France and Russia and in Central Powers there were countries- Germany , Austria-Hungary and Italy . But Austria-Hungary had taken the distasteful against conformity; Italy did not enter into the War. As well as Italy fought for Allies. Both alliances organized and increased more nations into the war. More than 70 million military personnel entered into this war. 60 million military were from Europe . And more than 9 million were killed in the historical battle. In this war the highest technological weapons were used. The war of 1 is the six listed most serious war in the world history.
The war was the imperialistic foreign policies of the great powers of Europe, together with the German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Russian Empire, the British Empire, the French Republic , and Italy . On 28th July the disagreement opened with the Austro Hungarian attack of Serbia , followed by the German invasion of Belgium , Luxemburg and France . The German march on Paris was brought to an end. In the East, the Russian army successfully fought against the Austro-Hungarian army but was forced back by the German military. The Russian King collapsed in March 1917 and Russia left the war after the October Revolution later in same year. After 1918, German offensive along the Western front, USA forces entered the channels and the Allies Troop back the German armies in a series of winning offensive. Germany agreed to a cease-fire on 11 November 1918, later known as Armistice Day. The war had ended in victory for the Allies.
The name of World War I is very much interesting. “Some wars name themselves. This is the Great War”, said Maclean’s Magazine in Canada in 1914. The war was called the World War and the Great War in English speaking countries. After the Second World War, this war was named World War I. In American historians called it World War I on the other hand British and Canadian said it First World War. This is the difference in calling the name of the war. German philosopher named Ernest Haeckel in September 1914 asserted that “there is no doubt that the course and character of the feared European War……… will become the First World War in the full logic of the word. “The First World War” was the heading of a history book by the officer and journalist Carles a Court Repington.
The background of the war is well known to all. The major European powers had gone to great amount to balance the power all over the Europe . Political and military alliances were result of this difficulty. Those complex networks started in 1815 with the Holy Alliance between Prussia , Russia , and Austria . German Chancellor Bismarck talked the League of the Three Emperors between the monarchs of Austria-Hungary , Germany and Russia . This alliance was expended to adding Italy in 1882 what turned into the Triple Alliance.
After unification and foundation of the Empire in 1871 the industrial and economical power had been grown greatly in German. Wilhelm II used to devote important economic resources to build up the Imperial German Navy in rivalry with the British Royal Navy for world naval supremacy
