Answer

World War 1 was a horrible time. men had to go and fight,miles away from their families. Loads of people died.

The British government was encouraging men to enlist for war by putting up posters therefore most of the people who signed in for the war were thinking that the war would be fun, where will be no much fighting, more so it will be really safe and most probably it will end by Christmas.

In reality the first world war was horrific. First of all the war went very slow because most of the times soldiers spent in trenches which caused trench foot because soldiers kept their feet wet for a long time. Men also suffered from freezing winters and starvation because the food was often eaten by rats. There were many diseases going around so it was more likable to die from the disease then from the fighting.

Soldiers had to be in good physical condition because they always had to have their full kit on them and more so it wasn't easy to cross the no man's land.

This was the first war in which was involved so many countries and . millions of people became victims of the war. A big amount of people were killed by influenza pandemic which appeared right after the war. Political system in Russia was replaced because of the first world war, World map for the first time very strongly changed: new states and new boundaries appeared.A.K.A. it sucked.
