Answer:

More people were killed than in any previous war.

Explanation:

The second half of the nineteenth century had witnessed a profound transformation of the basic weapon of the infantryman: the rifle. Of the load by the mouth, which forced the soldier to stand, he went to the backload, which allowed to load lying down. From the waxed paper cartridge, the compact metallic cartridge was reached; from the round bullet, to the pointed bullet. To this the bolt, the percussion by needle and the cordite, the gunpowder without smoke added, that, therefore, did not give away to the handle. The principles of portable weapons of the twentieth century were served.

The need to have a weapon with greater firepower in the attacks forced the evolution of the machine gun. This is how the light machine guns emerged, in the case of the American BAR of 1917, or the submachine guns (lighter than a rifle), such as the German Bergmann of the following year, the MP18.

One of the main problems of the infantry in the trench warfare was overcoming the dense wire fences parallel to the enemy lines, which could occupy a surface of up to 30 meters in width. British Colonel Ernest Swinton was struck by an idea when he saw a tractor pulling a cannon: maybe he could crush the barbed wire and carry the cannon to shoot. Churchill became a defender of the new weapon, which would be built in secret. The first specimens were packed as "tanks" of water, hence the name.

Why did America annex Hawaii?<br><br>(own words)
yan [13]

The United States military leaders were fearful of the Japanese on the islands and created a strategic naval base withinside the middle of the Pacific. This furnished sufficient fuel in Congress to pass annexation legislation so that it will keep itself from the perceived "danger of the Asiatics."

<h3 /><h3>What do you mean by Annexation?</h3>

In worldwide law, Annexation refers to the forcible acquisition of one state's territory with the aid of using some other state, normally following the army career of the territory. It is usually held to be an unlawful act.

Therefore, fear of the US military regarding the Japanese occupation resulted in the passing of the annexation legislation. Hawaii was annexed in 1898.
