War on the Western and Eastern Fronts

The First World War has two faces: In the West, it turns into grueling trench warfare after only a few weeks. Over a distance of 750 kilometers, soldiers are entrenched in ditches and holed up behind barbed-wire. Every offensive turn into widespread death - not only in Verdun and the Somme. By 1916, over 5 million men have fallen, or been seriously wounded on the Western Front. The war in the East is different. It is a war of movement with advances in open country. The technically superior German army maintains the upper hand under Generals Hindenburg and Ludendorff, while, the Russian Tsar is relying on ever new supplies of soldiers from his vast empire. With devastating consequences for the populace in the multi-ethnic border regions. mehr weniger
