Introduction to World War I

For the next few months, I will be diving deep into the history of World War I. During that time, I will be building MOCs and writing essays about each important event during this catastrophic conflict. This terrible war was fought on many fronts, dragging in hoards of nations to join in the brutality.

Before The Great War began, wars in the past consisted of soldiers in brightly colored uniforms firing at each other in lines, usually across largely flat terrain. However, this war was different. Emerging from the industrial revolution, the nations of Europe began utilizing their new-found technology to construct large and terrible weapons, capable of inflicting damage and destruction like nothing the world had ever seen.
