Machines | The Great War: Death of Glory (1of2) (WWI Documentary)
videos | at work | information | view | construction
Its names are loaded with irony. "The Great War" saw chivalry and honor on the battlefield replaced by technology and firepower that swept millions to their deaths. "The War to End All Wars" was followed less than 25 years later by an even deadlier conflict. WORLD WAR I: THE DEATH OF GLORY shows how this epic struggle had a more profound effect on civilization than any other war in history. New countries had to be built on the ruins of a continent. It was the end of kings, empires and innocence, and the beginning of weapons like the U-boat, the machine gun, the tank and poison gas. Graphic footage captures the horrors of trench warfare in battles like Verdun, where over one million men died. Riveting commentary from leading experts details the awesome effects of new technology on the battlefield, and the revolutionary changes that the end of the war brought.

This documentary is grossly over simplified

We'll all starve soon thanks to climate change: no more good weather for grain to grow. Life is a silly repeating cycle of misery and pain. It will be good not being able to do this to a next generation. The Earth will be quiet as the moon and that's the best it can be. A little later the sun can boil off the oceans and life will be impossible forever. We were most unfortunate to have to live and be aware of this.

wars must be fought as long as there greedy men among us!

ATTN ALL BATTLEFIELD 1 PLAYERS: STOP TRYING TO LEARN THE WORLDS HISTORY! PLAY THE GAME AND ACCEPT IT AS ACCURATE WAR HISTORY......Just kidding, you anti bf people are so stupid....makes me laugh. Thanks cause I WAS having a bad day...lol

instead of complaining about people coming to ww1 vids just cus of battlefield 1, i think you should be thankful. Before the game came out, interest over the events of WW1 weren't searched that much by people, since they preferred to look for more info on WW2 (myself included until recently, tho i don't own the game itself). Thanks to this new game which actually does a good job of capturing the savage nature of this conflict on it's campaign mode, WW1 is now becoming more searched by younger people, so they know just how exactly this war was actually like for people who lived in those times, and why it was such an unnecessary conflict with a huge waste of life. History is a right for everyone, regardless of the reason why they seek it.

This war was basically Europe being Europe - except for Switzerland. nobody invaded them. because fighting in the mountain sucked. Also, Did you know that Switzerland wasn't invaded in either ww1or ww2? yeah, they weren't. I have to give props to the Swiss, they know how to pick their battles. -
These subtitles are hilarious! ....yeah

Would it be safe to say that all of the world's problems, even to this day, are all because of Gavrilo Princip?
-
I really didn't care for WW1 Before battlefield. now i'm just learning as much as I can about this bloody disaster
-
Here's the thing about BF1 and why it's amazing, They have a balance of fun and accurate here's what I mean, It's theme is WW1 it would be boring if you had to march everywhere and stay in trenches for ages but they still got the theme correct so it's fun because you don't have to stay in trenches and it's accurate because they got the theme right

11:35 the Schlieffen might've succeeded if Germany got Belgium on side and bought themselves enough time to take France and effectively stop the British in their tracks.

The Germans. Twice they've fucked Europe in the ass, and eventually the whole planet, and now they're starting to do it again via a Polish Jew called Merkel

What a complete waste of life. All for nothing but the greed of a few "leaders."
