Why was WWI considered a new kind of war?

1 answer:

7 0

Already in 1914, at the beginning of war, battle was much more violent than it had ever been before. And then military and civilian suffering gradually intensified the violence over the duration of the conflict. This progressive intensification lent its own dynamic to the conflict; in the very first days and weeks of the war the practices of war took a brutal turn, not only on the battlefields but also for prisoners and civilians. Even for the ordinary soldier, the enormous explosion of violence that occurred in the summer of 1914 immediately and scathingly refuted all the predictions that had been made in the years prior.

The death toll of the Great War is well known: around 9 - 10 million, nearly all soldiers

So basically they had a new kind of technology to make the war more deadlier

<h2>Answer: Abraham Lincoln </h2>

Explanation:

The seven debates between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas, focused on the issues of slavery, morals and values. It should be noted that at that time, <u>Lincoln was the candidate of the Republican Party for the United States Senate of Illinois, and Stephen Douglas was a senator and candidate of the Democratic Party. </u>

These debates were the first of their kind at that time, whose format was that one candidate would speak for 60 minutes, then the other candidate would speak for 90 minutes, and then the first candidate would be allowed a 30-minute reply.

These debates caused such a stir, that there is currently a model of debate based on those carried out by these two politicians in 1858.

The European countries that became involved in colonization in the 1600s and the land they claimed were the following.

The 1600s were known as the years of expedition. A time in human history when European superpowers of the time invested a lot of money hiring professional sailors to navigate the seas, explore faraway territories to discover new lands or navigation routes.

That is why Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas on October 12, 1492. He had been sponsored by King Ferdinand of Aragon and Queen Isabella de Castille, to explore and get new lands for the mighty Spanish crown. Once the discovery was made, the Spanish King sent his army to conquest Mesoamerican and South American territories, as was the case of the Great Tenochtitlan and the Aztec Empire, or the Inca Empire in Machu Pichu, Peru.

Then the English established the first British colony in the North American territory in 1607: Jamestown Virginia. Another 12 colonies followed on the East Coast. The French did the same in what today is Canada. The Netherlands founded New Amsterdam in what today is Manhattan, New York. The Portuguese colonized the Amazonic territories of what today is Brazil.
