Photos of the First World
The First World War in Western sources is often called the Great. And this is not by chance.
It lasted 4 for the year from 1914 to 1918. And in terms of the intensity of hostilities and the number of people involved in this war, it is commensurate with the Second World War, but in its historical significance, in many respects, it surpasses it.
The First World War was of great importance in terms of technological progress. It was during this war that the battlefields appeared Tanks, aircraft, submarines, machine guns, chemical weapon and much more.
