This is just to say

The difference between  WW1 ( World War 1 ) and
WW2 ( World War 2 ) 


The difference between  World War 1 and World War 2. World War 1
started on 28 July 1914 and ended on 11 November 1918. But did
you know that in World War 1 around 8.5 million soldiers died in
4 years.


World War 2 started on 1 September 1939  and ended
on 2 September 1945. In World War 2 around 75 million people
died in the 6 years world war 2 went on for. Also in World War 2,
16 million American soldiers went to war and 140,000 soldiers
from New Zealand went to World War 2.


 World War 1 and World War 2 are really different because
WW1 was in 1918 and WW2 was in 1939, and also WW1 only
lasted 4 years and WW2 lasted 6 years. Some faster about WW1,
within 4 years around 13000 people joined the army. 


More facts about WW1…
 Before World War 2 began in 1939, World War I was called the
Great War, the World War or the War to the end was all Wars in the
19th century . In 1914, 135 countries took part in World War I,
and more than 15 million people died in World War 1 and a military
lasting from 1914 to 1918 which involved nearly all the biggest
powers of the world.


More facts about WW2… 
World War 2, also called the Second World War, conflict that
involved  every part of the world during the years 1939 or 1945.
The principals were too. Axis powers of Germany, Italy, and Japan
and France, Great Britain, the United States and to a lesser extent,
China.


And this is some of the reasons what is the difference between
World War 1 and World War 2, and now you know a lot more facts
about WW1 and WW2.

 How did trench warfare work in WW1?


What is trench warfare? 
Were they go to a battle field and  2 or more countries dig
holes on each side and put boards in the holes and make
stairs. Then they fight to the end and millions of people
died in trench warfare.  


In trench warfare there were a lot of rats so they put food
in barrels and when the rats came they would shoot them.
And if you got trench foot it is like a infection. But it feels
like a painful condition of the feet caused by long
immersion in cold water or mud and marked by blackening
of your toes. 


It is estimated that there were about 2,490 kilometre of
trench lines dug during World War 1. Most trenches were
between 1-2 metres wide and 3 metres deep. Trenches
weren't dug in straight lines in WW 1 but  trenches were
built as  zigzag or in pattern with many different levels
along the lines.


Around 8.5 million to 12 million people died during the
war. And more than 100 countries went to the trench
warfare. Including  Germany, Austria Hungary, Bulgaria
and the Ottoman Empire (the Central Powers) fought
against Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy, Romania,
Japan and the United States. 


In conclusion this is how I think trench warfare worked in
WW 1.
