Best Answer

World War I was mainly fought in Europe, especially northeastern France, Belgium, northeastern Italy, and present-day Poland, Serbia, and Romania.

There were also naval battles in the Mediterranean and the North Sea. However, there was some serious fighting in the Middle East (Mesopotamia, Palestine, Armenia, and the Gallipoli Penninsula in Turkey) and some short fighting in the German colonies in Africa(present-day Cameroon, Togo, Tanzania, and Namibia), some naval battles near China (especially the German-influenced part of Tsingtao), and some fighting in the German territories in the Pacific (Northern New Guinea and the Mariana Islands).

  • In Eastern Europe on the front between Russia and Germany and Austria-Hungary.

  • In 1916 (and later) also in Romania.
  • In the Middle East - Palestine, Mesopotamia, Syria.
  • Germany's colonies in Africa were taken fairly quickly except for German East Africa (mainly present day Tanzania), where the fighting continued throughout WW1.
  • The German outpost in Manchuria was also the scene of fighting.
  • North-east Italy
  • Salonika
  • South-West Africa
The Western Front (Belgium & France) the Eastern Front (Mainly in what is now Poland) the Balkan Front (Northern Italy & what became Yugoslavia) The Middle East (Iraq & Palestine) & various parts of Africa.
World War I was fought primarily in France, Germany and other mainland European countries. Fighting also occured in colonial settlements in Africa and Southeast Asia.

The simple answer is throughout Europe. However that is a highly simplified answer. While it was not quite as all-encompassing as WWII, it did stretch beyond the mere borders of Europe. But for all practical purposes it was largely contained to the European Continent.
