Hello I am glad that you like to learn about history. I am history teacher in school in my country. Maybe I can add some interesting things about World War I. I really like this period. :D
- The total cost of WWI for all involved is an estimated $185 billion.
- The most successful fighter of the entire war was Rittmeister von Richthofen (1892-1918). He shot down 80 planes, more than any other WWI pilot. He died after being shot down near Amiens.
- Big Bertha was a 48-ton howitzer used by the Germans in WWI. It was named after the wife of its designer Gustav Krupp. It could fire a 2,050-lb (930-kg) shell a distance of 9.3 miles (15 km).
- “Little Willie” was the first prototype tank in WWI. Built in 1915, it carried a crew of three and could travel as fast as 3 mph (4.8 km/h).
- Russia mobilized 12 million troops during WWI, making it the largest army in the war. More than 3/4 were killed, wounded, or went missing in action.
- There were over 35 million civilian and soldier casualties in WWI. Over 15 million died and 20 million were wounded.
