But to fight for no reason is the height of foolishness. Ironically‚ World War I was a product of the Napoleonic Wars‚ which killed a generation of young men. After Napoleon was

    The first World War‚ The Great War‚ or what many like to call it‚ was an avoidable war that cost millions of military and civilian lives. The blood of both sides‚ mixed in the dirt and mud that soaked the uniforms of the sick troops‚ taking cover in trenches‚ praying to God that they aren’t the ones to be bombed by the next mortar incoming; this barely scratches the surface when describing “The Great War”.
