oh crap.

Miss spell, i meant corporal.

Hitler actually was a corprol in ww1

Whos to blame?

Germany, was not exactly to blame for ww1. The archduke was killed and Germany got angry. But Kaiser wilhelm II was kind of aggressive. He may have wanted to start conflict. But then, Serbia killed the Archduke. So its a matter of opinion. You could have cases for either side. Also, the Nazis did not exist in ww1.

Tanks

Quick list of tank used in ww1
~British mark v, Iv, there, like any other tank were many versions.
~Frances light tank, Renault FT.
~French St. Chamond tanks, were horrible. they had long bodies going over the treads so they sucked at maneuvering.
~German A7V tank, huge and fearsome, but clumsy with many weak spots. Looked like a fortress. 24.1 ft (7.34 m) long, 9.8 ft (3 m) wide, 9.8 ft (3.3 m) wide.
~British Mark A Whippet, was fast(er)

911

Remember 911. on this fateful day many lost their lives. The twin towers, and the Pentagon. Another plane was attempted to be hijacked but the passenger resisted. It crashed in a field, but it was going to hit D.C.'s capitol building. So these brave people saved hundreds of lives. By the way, the other planes weren't resisted against because they thought it was a common hijacking,and they'd be delivered somewhere. They were sadly wrong. Remember 911.

Some info on the weapons of ww1

Some weapons were used very late in the war. Tanks, for instance, were not used until about 1916. Some were used very early, like chlorine gas. here are uses of some weapons.

~rifles and other arms for soldiers: used as main weapons because machine guns were too bulky

~machine guns: may seem devastating but really, they were heavy, bulky, took a good amount of soldiers to operate, and overheated very easily. But towards the end of the war they were improved and became powerful weapons of war.

~flamethrower: used by Germans in 1915 but was quickly widened to other countries. But they could explode, the fuel cells, and had very limited range so these were dangerous considering enemy's had rifles that could fire at about 600 meters (which is really far)

~bayonets: veterans say bayonets were used more as a..... ''decoration'' than actual weapons of war. If so, why did many soldiers use bayonets? Because they were very ideal close combat weapons.

~pistols: issued to officers, military police, and tank operators. When the war began there were three main types of pistol in use: revolvers, clip-loaded automatics and the 'blow-back' models where expanding propellant gas caused the gun to reload by forcing the bolt back when fired.

~poison gas: first used by the french. Gases such as chlorine, phosgene, and what may be the most deadly, Yperite, or mustard gas. (note: in case you didn't know poison gas is now illegal to use in war)
Well that's all for now.

Notice

OK, i know we all like WW1. But i want to keep it interesting i may put up some posts on world war 2. If you would like me to make this comment and tell me.

Did world war 1 lead to world war 2?

NO. There seems to be a rumor that world war 1 was a cause of world war 2 because of the harsh conditions of the treaty of Versailles, but this is only a small thing that did help Germany get mad and slightly helped the the start of ww2 because Germany was mad, but did not cause it. For more info you can Google the question ''Did world war 1 lead to world war 2?''. Hope this helps clarify and stop the rumors. Goodbye everyone, I'll post more later.

Help! Save our Schools! So we can learn about World War One more!

OK, this is non-world war one related but go to http://d300protest.blogspot.com its my friends blog and it focuses on saving our schools and stopping class cutting (note: since its d300 it only applies to d300 but other districts could learn some protests if there classes are being cut)

What started World War One, what occured during it, and the outcome of it.

~1. What caused world war 1: World war 1 happened for many reasons. It is more complicated than a simple list of reasons. A very major cause is the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary, but that will be explained later. First of all, the allies before the war are as follows:

• Russia and Serbia
• Germany and Austria-Hungary
• France and Russia
• Britain and France and Belgium
• Japan and Britain.

So, as you see, if one was attacked, the other allies would defend. remember this list, as it will be important later. Another cause is Imperialism. Imperialism is when a country increases their power and wealth by bringing additional territories under their control. Before ww1, Africa and parts of Asia were being competed over and people wanted to build empires. This already was a recipe for absolute disaster. Next, militarism .In the 20th century, a global arms race began. By 1914, Germany had the greatest increase in military buildup. Great Britain and Germany both greatly increased their navies in this time period. Further, in Germany and Russia particularly, the military establishment began to have a greater influence on public policy. This increase in militarism helped push the countries involved to war. Now we go back to the assassination and the allies. Well, in June 1914 a Serbian nationalist shot and killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary and his wife while they were in Sarajevo, Bosnia, which is as a matter of fact, was a part of Austria-Hungary. So the archduke was dead, and the Serbians killed him. The Austrian-Hungarians went to war with Serbia, and Russia, being allies with Serbia, went to war to defend Serbia. Germany went to war with Russia, but, is has been discovered that Germany probably already wanted war, and this was good alibi. Then, France went to war against both Austria-Hungary and Germany. (you may want to refer to the list of allies as this goes on for quite a while). I must honestly say, i wish not to go through the whole list, you can infer that all of these allies went to war, and Italy and America got in it too.

~2. how ww1 was fought: This is a quick note for those interested. Ww1 was fought from trenches, first ever trench warfare. It was an awful was to fight. Laying in a trench with blood, dead bodies, dying people and puke all over you and around you would be absolutely horrible.

~3. equipment and weapons of ww1:
Rifles: Mousers, Springfield 03's, Lee-Enfields, Lebels, Berthiers, Steyr-Mannlichers.
Machine Guns: many were used, about 20, some are the Vickers, Maxim, Spandau and Hotchiss.
Mortars were used.
Grenades: widely used, about 5 different kinds. Many grenade battles took place in ww1.
Tanks: first showed up in ww1
Aircrafts: huge advancements made for the war in Aircrafts
Flamethrowers: LET EM' BURN!!!!!!!
Artillery was used
Many watercraft
poison gas 
And more.


Equipment:
Gas masks for poison gas
Chocolate, yes CHOCOLATE, used as both an energy booster and to lift the soldiers morale
Standard military equipment
And more.

~4. How it ended and the outcome:
Well, the 1919 treaty of Versailles officially ended the war. This also lead to the creation of the league of nations. Well, in signing the treaty, Germany accepted full responsibility for the war, had to pay enormous war fines, and give land. Bad for Germany. I'm sorry, I did not mention the Ottoman empire before, but for those who know what it was here:
The Ottoman empire dissolved, and became mainly the republic of Turkey. (The country not the bird)
For those who don't know what it was: it was an empire that sided with Austria-Hungary. Then see above for what happened to it.
Austria-Hungary split into different states, like Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia.
Well, that's the end of my blog, if I learn more I will update, but for now, hope you learned a lot about world war 1, I personally think it's the most interesting war. Bye for now!
