Introduction

World War One was the result of the western world’s untethered industrial power during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The fields of land, sea, and aerial warfare were forever changed through the advancements of chemical, armored-vehicle, naval and aviation technologies. An attitude of experimentation led to technological advances that were constantly improved upon between 1914 and 1918. As a result, the world witnessed the largest amount of death and destruction it had ever seen.
