Hearing about WW1 makes me sadder than hearing about WW2 (at least as far as Europe is concerned) because the people never knew of such horror beforehand, and it resolved nothing: it just laid the seeds of something far worse. At least WW2 defeated Nazism.

@mirRussiaUkraine Indeed. Thank you for again fighting nazism, and I'm so sorry that my Western government is supporting nazism. I've spoken out against it, but no one listens. Western people are both very stupid, very brainwashed and very arrogant / close-minded unfortunately.
"Let's focus on attacking 1 side then the other to avoid war in 2 fronts" *Start war in 2 fronts and refuses to move troops from east to west after the fall of Russia*
They did it so that countries like Ukraine, Belarus and the Baltics dont declare independence, and so that the USSR doesn't declare war to take back its land.
@@ramseyrafan1106 I don't think they'd have won the war even then. The Americans were joining and Germany was getting choked out by naval blockade. With WW1 tech as it was, half a million or so extra soldiers wouldn't have broken the Western front. The way Germany might have been able to win WW1 is if they didn't try to beat France by going through Belgium, because Britain joined because they had guaranteed Belgian neutrality and Germany invaded it.
Same old story. Germany didn’t have enough resources to continue the war due to blockades and lack of excess to the oceans, and civilian cost would have been too high for Germans to continue the war. Also their allies dropped out of the war, while the Americans as yet another entente faction had finally entered the war officially with completely fresh troops, more supplies and the feared shotguns which all together overwhelmed the Germans in the end. German civilians were starving due to the British naval blockade (because of which about 1 to 2 German civilians had died) and thus Germans demanded peace, while striking and causing anti-government uprisings (notable being an anti-government uprising in Berlin of navy soldiers with French origins). Although the Germans had just acquired much fertile Russian lands which could have helped with resources but that was too late as a massive amount of German civilians already made up their minds and turned against the continuation of the war and demanded peace at once, unlike the population in entente nations. Ironically though the Germans needed soldiers to guard their new land in the former Russian Empire, troops that could have helped them massively at the front.
Stupidly, it was open warfare on the seas with u-boats and submarine sinking everything they saw which dragged the Americans into the war which ultimately doomed Germany. Had Germany not done that, in 1918, they could still defeated Russia and kept all their gains out East but retreated from France, created a huge new Hindenburg type line on their Western border and dared an exhausted France & Britain to try and invade Germany. Personally, I think Germany ''wins'' WW1 then in the sense that both sides too exhausted on the Western Front to do any more. It was the entry of the Americans that gave the Allied the manpower to convince Germany it's over.
I know a lot of people give Americans crap for joining the war late, but this shows that it was the extra push that was needed especially of Russia fell on the eastern front.
What if... *Me joins WW1* German Empire: WHO ARE YOU!?!??!!??!!?!?!?! Austria-Hungary: Whoa! Me: im from the future! German Empire: the future? Me: Yes, i had a question! Is it WW1 or WW2? German Empire: Austria-Hungary:
As a Bulgarian, I will always support the Central Powers and will miss the opportunity WW1 provided for my nation to achieve its national unification in all lands settled by Bulgarians. Sadly, that lost war is the hardest hit ever for Bulgaria, not counting the 2 Medieval occasions where it completely lost political independence.
The casualties seem a lot over estimated, most of the sources talk about 10 millions deads in total🤔 Here's wikipedia number for both camps : - Total dead militarys : ~ 9 500 000 - Total dead civillians : ~ 9 000 000 - Total Woundeds military : ~ 21 000 000
Germany won WW1 on the Eastern front. What you see in the end is German soldiers occupying / pacifying the territories they got in the Brest-Litovsk treaty. But then later Germany lost on the Western front.
Germany needed oil in Arabic countries. The plan was to take what the Ottoman Empire lost in the balkans so they could build a railroad from Berlin to Baghdad via Turkey, who had good relations with Germany. But of course, neither Russia, France, nor Britain would let that happen.
Because: 1) they couldn't break the Western French front in the short term, because WW1 is the war of machine gun nests and trenches, with tanks being very primitive. 2) in the long term they would have gotten choked out and starved by Britain's naval blockade, and by continual reinforcements from America who joined the war near the end. But yes, what you say is sort of the basis for the myth that Germany could have won, they were just stabbed in the back.
All those casualties on the western front, and it didn’t move! A pointless meat grinder. A disgrace to those in charge who saw human beings as little more than what is shown here- mere numbers.
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria on June 28, 1914 triggered a chain of events that led to World War I: Political objective: The assassination was carried out by a Serbian extremist group called the Black Hand, who wanted to break up the Austro-Hungarian Empire and establish a South Slav state. Austria-Hungary declares war: Austria-Hungary issued an ultimatum to Serbia after the assassination, which Serbia rejected. Austria-Hungary then declared war on Serbia with the support of Germany. Russia sides with Serbia: Russia, a traditional ally of Serbia, sided with Serbia in the conflict. Germany invades France: Germany invaded Belgium, a neutral country, to avoid a two-front war with Russia. Britain declares war: Britain declared war on Germany the day after Germany invaded Belgium to support Belgian neutrality. Canada enters the war: Canada, a member of the British Empire, entered the war on August 4, 1914.
Can you do battle of the dniper river And also can you do vistula oder offensive Oh yeah also can you do warsaw uprising Also can you do battles of rzhev Sorry i think i have asked a lot but can you do battle of narva I think thats enough tbh please do dis 🙏
In WW2 yes, but the US didn't change much in WW1, i believe that if they didn't join then the war would have ended a year later but the end result would be the same because the Germans were already starving even before the Americans joined
Yes the US made very important contributions, but if you remove Russia from WW1 and WW2, probably the Germans win both wars. So you could equally rightfully say that Russia made the difference. In WW2 for example, 80% of nazi deaths were on the eastern front. And while yes, us Europeans are very grateful that you helped beat the nazis in WW2, it's far less clear that the allies beating the axis in WW1 was actually the best outcome. WW1 Germany wasn't any more evil than France and Britain and America were. And if Germany had won WW1, probably WW2 doesn't happen. Yes, sure, in that timeline Germany dominates Europe, but WW1-era Germany isn't any more evil than other Western countries, and in that timeline Hitler doesn't come into power. In that timeline, we would probably be saying "it's good that the US and Germany are the two great powers, because together they preserve peace in the world." In that timeline, maybe there are no more major wars after WW1 because Germany preserves peace in Europe, the same way America preserves peace in the Americas. And if you're a person who currently doesn't like Russia -- well if Germany wins WW1, Russia is permanently much weaker as a result.
I wish there was a program, that has the 3d Earth, and you can rotate it around, and then having a time slider, and you can move the slider back and forth, and see all the wars that ever happened all around the globe like in this video, starting from the ancient ages all the way to today :D
Yeah. Honestly you could argue that the seven year's war was a more global kind of war than WW1. WW1 is just called such because history is written by whoever's dominant, and that was Europe at the time, and for Europe this was an extremely awful war.
This was the first time Americans were drafted and forced to fight in a war that was no threat to American soil. I'm not against a draft...but I'm against forcing a man to fight a war across an ocean. That's not defending his country, no matter how the song goes.
Without the US, France would've collapse due to Russia collapsing in the eastern front. Britain would probably not collapse however. A threat of Mexican invasion was also imminent so the US joining was somewhat important.
@@Jade-Official472 okay, so the US joins. Makes a case for why it's important to it's people and people volunteer to join the military and go fight. I just think it's wrong to impose a draft and force anyone to go fight in a war that isn't happening on your own soil.
