Expectations going into world war 1 versus the reality of how it actually played out?
men thought it would be an opportunity to get away, like a holiday whereas it turned out to be anything but fun. they also expected it to be over by Christmas time but it lasted them till 1918. They expected it to be an easy victory but they came back with a high amount of casualties and diseases. yeh thats it :)

What two ironclad vessels were in the civil war?
There were several dozen, maybe twice as many in the Union Navy as in the Confederate. But the two most famous were among the very first, and fought each other in 1862, revolutionizing naval warfare for all nations. This is remembered as the Monitor versus the Merrimac. The USS Monitor was the northern ship, and the other was the CSS Virginia. The Virginia was built on the remains of the old USS Merrimac, a ship burned by the Union Navy when they had to abandon the Norfolk Navy Yard. But Monitor versus Merrimac sounds better than Monitor versus Virginia, so that's how newspapers reported it.
Why did the battle of the monitor versus the merrimack make other navies around the world obsolete?
It showed the days of wooden ships were at an end - ironclads were the future of naval warfare
