A stalemate developed in the trenches on the western front because?
neither side could decisively beat the other
Why is a stalemate used to describe World War 1?
Stalemate is a perfect description for the lack of movement on the Western Front. Both sides hit an impasse - both dug and created huge networks of trenches and spent years trying to gain small amounts of ground. Neither side was able to gain much ground in the war. They would send troops to capture the other side's trenches and then have to abandon them almost immediatly when a counter offensive was launched.
What summary accurately describes the stalemate that developed during World War 1?
Answer this question… Though little territory was ever gained, military leaders continued sending huge numbers of troops to attack enemy trenches.
Soldiers stalemate effect?
Stalemate=cold war.
Did poison gas help stalemate in World War 1?
The stalemate was already firmly established before poison gas was ever used. The leaders turned to using gas in an effort to break the stalemate. They hoped to wipe out all defenders of a section of the enemy lines, allowing them to break through over the gassed area and possibly begin to roll up the enemy lines to either side of the gassed area, and ultimately to break out of the trenches and resume a war of movement.
