The only weapon that was used before World War 1 was the maxim gun. The maxim gun is the earliest example of a recoil firing mechanism found in a gun. It was developed in 1883 and the first prototype was shown in 1884. Trials showed that it could fire 600 rounds per minute. The maxim gun is also known as the weapon that was used most by the British when fighting various colonial wars. 

Hand grenades, poisonous gas and tanks were all used for the first time in World War 1.

What motives did the two superpowers have for fighting surrogate wars
Ber [7]
"Surrogate wars" also known as "proxy wars" are wars fought in a third country. The US and the Soviet Union were fighting each other in, for example, Afghanistan and Vietnam.

They preferred proxy wars, because they came without civilian victims of  own population and without  a distraction of the infrastructure of their own countries. In short, the two powers could compete militarily with each other without suffering the worst effects of the wars - this situation allowed them to try to defeat the other one without much risk to their own population.

Answer:

I don't really think this is a question... (more a statement) so I'm not entirely sure how to answer you other than a simple "Okay. That's an interesting and true statement." Sorry I couldn't help.
