1.a revolver used by a Serbian nationalist to assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand. 2.nine million people had died on the battlefield and the world was forever changed. 3.These changes lead to conflicts, jealousies and differences that were not easily reconcilable. Monarchies and democracies alike sought to cope with the changes and to protect their authority. 4.The plan required precise timing, with no interruptions in the timetable -- its first objective was to capture Paris in precisely 42 days, and force the French to surrender. 5.Because of their value to the war-making power of each nation, civilians became the target of the enemy. Since both sides targeted both civilians and military personnel, and mobilized men and resources at an unprecedented rate. 6.Many refused to obey orders, retreating when commanded to advance; they deserted the military and engage in open rebellion and mass mutiny. 7.kamara became involded in the total war because he was black man. 8.in december 1918. no because many people were disillusioned with Wilson, thinking he had betrayed them.

1.Historians can easily identify the literal "smoking gun" that set the War in motion: a revolver used by a Serbian nationalist to assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand (heir apparent to the Austro-Hungarian throne) in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914.
2.In the introduction of the Great War did not tell the number of the soldiers died, but nine million people had died on the battlefield and the world was forever changed.
3.The western world and the countries in its sphere of influence were undergoing unprecedented changes in every area of society. Industrial expansion and wealth, both personal and national, had a profound impact on economic life.
4. The Schlieffen plan got off to a quick start with a German army invading Belgium to reach Paris, and then soon began to unravel.
5.Since both sides targeted both civilians and military personnel, and mobilized men and resources at an unprecedented rate, the Great War was a "total war."
6.Many refused to obey orders, retreating when commanded to advance; they deserted the military and engage in open rebellion and mass mutiny.
7.For Vera Brittain, because when her brother Edward, fiancé Roland and their close friend Victor marched off to the battlefields, so she involved in the "total war". For Kande Kamara, because he is the son of a West African village chief, joined the Allied fight on the Western Front, so he also involved in the war.
8.The Treaty of Versailles was finally signed June 28, 1919, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand. The peace treaty proved no real peace. Instead, the seeds were sown for an even more catastrophic war just one generation later. So, it was not effective.

1. "Smoking gun" that set the War in motion: a revolver used by a Serbian nationalist to assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
2. Nine million people had died during World War I.
3.Industrial expansion and wealth, both personal and national, had a profound impact on economic life. These changes lead to conflicts, jealousies and differences that were not easily reconcilable.
4." The plan required precise timing, with no interruptions in the timetable -- its first objective was to capture Paris in precisely 42 days, and force the French to surrender. The German armies would then shift their focus to the eastern front and defeat the Russians before they were fully prepared to fight.
5. This was total war Because since both sides targeted both civilians and military personnel, and mobilized men and resources at an unprecedented rate, the Great War was a "total war."
6. Russian front line soldiers grew increasingly disillusioned and apathetic. Many refused to obey orders, retreating when commanded to advance; they deserted the military and engage in open rebellion and mass mutiny.
7. Vera Brittain at first was excited by the news of war. She called it "The most thrilling day of her life," but soon reality set in when her brother Edward, fiancé Roland and their close friend Victor marched off to the battlefields.

1) Historians can easily identify the literal "smoking gun" that set the War in motion: a revolver used by a Serbian nationalist to assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand (heir apparent to the Austro-Hungarian throne) in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914.
2) Before the official Armistice was declared on November 11, 1918, 9 million people had died on the battlefield and the world was forever changed.
3) In the four decades prior to August 1914, the western world and the countries in its sphere of influence were undergoing unprecedented changes in every area of society. Industrial expansion and wealth, both personal and national, had a profound impact on economic life. These changes lead to conflicts, jealousies and differences that were not easily reconcilable. Monarchies and democracies alike sought to cope with the changes and to protect their authority.
4) "Schlieffen Plan" - a strategy of war which developed over a period of many years. The plan required precise timing, with no interruptions in the timetable -- its first objective was to capture Paris in precisely 42 days, and force the French to surrender.
5) The civilians behind the lines were as important to victory as the men on the lines. Because of their value to the war-making power of each nation, civilians became the target of the enemy. Since both sides targeted both civilians and military personnel, and mobilized men and resources at an unprecedented rate, the Great War was a "total war."

1). What does the term "smoking gun" refer to in the first paragraph? was the first man-made catastrophe of the 20th century. Historians can easily identify the literal "smoking gun" that set the War in motion. 2). How many soldiers died during world war 1? Were soldiers the only casualties? on November 11, 1918, nine million people had died on the battlefield and the world was forever changed. Most of the leaders in 1914 had no real idea of the war machine they were putting into motion. 3). What sort of changes were going on in the western world at the time? Industrial expansion and wealth, both personal and national, had a profound impact on economic life. These changes lead to conflicts, jealousies and differences that were not easily reconcilable. 4). What was the "schlieffen plan"? Both sides originally believed that the Great War would be over quickly. In Germany, this belief was based on a long established war strategy called the Schlieffen Plan.
