Why did Germany and the allies lose so many men fighting each other at places like Verdun, Passchendaele, the Somme, Ypres, the Argonne and the Aisne?

WW1 was even worse than WW2 in terms of just military casualties.
>>
War on the industrial scale with no idea what's over to deal with it.

go in your backyard, dig a hole and sit it in. Every time you pop up to look over, you die
Rains and can't change socks? You die or at least love feet
Every not and then, randomly you die from mortar or airplane
Time to experience certificate a barrage! In your hole close your eyes and then put your head down. Now take your hands and put palms over ears and fingers to back of head, now drum one finger at a time up the back of your head as fast as you can. Those thuds should give you an idea as to the sheer amount of shells fired for DAYS to soften a line. Just imagine.

That's why it was so bloody

Just watch Dan Carlin's series on WWI

Basically this was the first modern war between large powers. Technology had advanced so far and so fast since Napoleon's time that militaries were just kind of winging it in WWI. They didn't know how effective modern artillery and other weaponry were going to be. The only way they could develop effective tactics to be effective and survive modern industrial warfare was basically trial and error.

It's why you see countries essientially zerg rushing for the first few years of the war.

>>128649892

Prior to WWI large scale engagements involved standing in an open field and firing at each other.

On the onset of war, generals and tacticians were still using outdated methodology to devise battle tactics - one German observer noted that when the French first engaged the German lines they were dressed in their bright blue uniforms complete with stripes. They were picked off pretty easily.

Warfare changed and there was no precedent. So they hunkered down and adapted on the fly.

>>128653480

Rifles were not new, the first conflict where breech-loading rifles vs breech-loading rifle happened was German-French war of 1870/71.

What was new was the machine gun and effective artillery and of course the gas.

Machine guns and artillery made advances impossible which is especially horrific when retarded generals think its a genius move to do bayonet charges.
>>
>>128649892
It was supposed to be quick, the idea being that modern weapons made war speedy and reduced suffering. In fact the opposite became true. Horses were not reliable in transporting anything, and cars did not really exist, so men did not really move as much or as quickly. The war just became static and men had to live in zombie graveyards for years.

The jews also influenced the bolshiviks to overthrow the tzar and jumpstart the communist revolution.

The new technology that had come in; better ways of entrenching and fortifying, barbed wire, machine guns, artillery... overwhelmingly favoured the defender in every confrontation, and strategists failed to come up with a response.

>They didn't know how effective modern artillery and other weaponry were going to be
I think this was also a overlooked part of why they went to war in the first place. The European governments and nobility for the past 30 years or so had built up massive arsenals and invested in the development of new military technology, and were itching to try out their new toys. If they had known what a drawn out bloodbath that would result, if they'd known just how destructive these weapons were and that they wouldn't see a swift victory in less than a year like in other European conflicts of that period, they would have done more to avoid war

Well, lets see.

Since it was a brand new type of war, there were no regulations. So devastating weapons like poison gas and artillery were used for the very first time on a major scale. Also, since it was a standstill war in muddy trenches, infested with diseases, many would die in the horrible conditions. Plus, throwing men into machine gun fire probably had a lot to do with how many deaths there were.

If technology in the next 20 years makes it affordable to hand out weaponry like rail guns to allies on the cheap for brinksmanship without nuke purposes we will start to see world war body counts over the course of a decade. Might even last longer since there are a lot more peripheral nation peoples on Earth today, and we can make it easy for them to do it to themselves.

Not to mention the mid-level civil wars in the civilized countries when offensive drone technology in the hands of law enforcement sees serious proliferation.

This century could be worse than the 20th, and the west will be lucky to see the 22nd at that rate.

We have no problem providing weaponry which can kill thousands to our allies. What about when we can cheaply give away enough armaments to kill hundreds of thousands without violating geneva conventions?

Drones also allow a government to kill all sorts of people in situations where it would normally be difficult or require the transfer of a lot of authority to death squad generals. A general ratcheting up of the body count without reaching the sustained peak mortality levels that would replenish our burnout on war. If you kill as many people a were killed in WWII but take an extra 10 years to do so, how difficult will it be to deescalate?

It was the first major war where all sides were heavily industrialized. It was the first war with the machine gun. It was the first war with chemical weapons. It was the first war where artillery could hit a position without being in line of sight. It was the first war where the standard infantry rifle was accurate and had the range to make use of that accuracy.

Officers did not understand the different tactics required for these new weapons. Most believed that all that was required was to fire artillery and then charge into the enemy, expecting the same. They never stopped to think that the average rifleman could pick off their men from several hundred yards out. they never stopped to think about how the machine gun could spit out enough lead to stop a charge cold. That's why it turned into such a stalemate eventually. Nobody knew how the fuck to move up on the battlelines, because the bolt action rifle and the machine gun gave the average solider far too much firepower to charge and overwhelm without vastly superior numbers. The war turned into a back and forth of artillery barrages and hopeless charges. Things didn't really change until the tank was invented and allowed offensives to actually work again, plus the inclusion of fresh American troops to revitalize the Allied lines.

CJ Chivers gives a pretty good breakdown in his book 'The Gun' on how both sides totally misunderstood new technologies. (He focuses specifically on machine guns, as the book is overall about the AK-47.)

Basically, people who had become officers in the era of cavalry just couldn't comprehend what machine guns were capable of. The Russians were some of the first to pick up on Gatling guns, and later maxim guns. There were battles in the Japanese and Russian war where the Russians did massive damage with machine guns, but nobody took notice. European countries had observers at these battles, but most never actually visited the battlefield.

Going into WW1, Germany had vastly more machine guns than France and England because the Kaiser had happened to be shown a military demonstration of Maxim guns a few years before and thought they were cool. The English had some at the start, but were barely trained on how to use them, and only issued a couple hundred rounds of ammo per gun. The French didn't really have any.

So in the opening stages of the war, the allies got totally wrecked by machine guns (and both sides by artillery.) But the officers were so out of touch and didn't visit the front, so they literally didn't believe the reports from infantry about the devastating effects of the guns. Even up to the Spring Offensive, the French and British generals were prioritizing new bayonets over machine guns and ammo.

They figured it out after awhile, but way too late. And then America entered the war and hadn't gotten the memo, and it was back to zerg rushing into machine guns for awhile.

And let's not even get into how badly prepared French artillery was!

Chivalry met industry.

When you had to make a sword and armor for a warrior it was and somehow majestic. When they figured out the mass production of a rifle, it was easier to make rifles than warriors. The gun talks less and kills more.

WWI was a clusterfuck because all of the armies had guns. Before it was more of "We got rifles/carbines, they have muskets/swords/stones" It was More technology than strategy.

People were so ignorant and brainwashed, that they would march into no mans land and slaughter each other, because some interbred toff queer told them to. WW1 was a meaningless war. My grandfather was in both World Wars, and hated those cunts for what they made him go through.

Never supported the nigger movements actually, the soviet union did, UK just abandoned them because of international pressure

Impossible to answer. So much would have changed in World History. Does the CSA join in on WWI? Do they side with Hitler in WWII and declare war on the USA? Has the CSA built up enough industry to fight the USA effectively in such a war? Who wins that war? Is the USA unable to invade Europe because they're too busy fighting Japan and the CSA? Does Hitler defeat the USSR because he can divert all of his forces and resources to the Eastern Front?

I've heard a lot of people say that eventually slavery would have been abolished in the CSA should it have won, but I'm not entirely sure. The CSA winning the Civil War means that there is an entirely different country with different beliefs and principles right on the border with the USA. If they sided with the Axis Powers then who knows what would have happened in WWII and beyond.

Mosley founded the BUF too late to be elected in time, had the entire media against him on top of that and Britain was too stable for him to be elected.

I'll throw in one more thing about the artillery. After the 19th century wars both sides had huge stockpiles of grapeshot - which is great for attacking infantry on an open plain but not much use against dug in bunkers and trenches. All it did was churn up the surface of the ground and create more mud, and made it harder for their own troops to advance.
But they had the stockpiles so they kept on using it.

Technological developments that appeared quickly and for which countermeasures had yet to be developed, combined with tactics intended to deliver knockout blows rather than form part of an overall strategic plan.

Literally nobody wanted this war. Heads of state of the principals were basically all Victoria's progeney and referred to one another as Nicky and Willy. This is a classic example of people unwittingly ceding control of events to the events themselves and was a perfect example of George Washington's warning against foreign entanglements. The alliances that were supposed to protect the individual countries eventually ruined all of them.

>Why was WW1 so bloody?
In short answer, the tactics of war hadn't caught up to the technology of war.

At the beginning of WW1, war was fought like it was in Napoleonic times, with bayonet charges and musket lines. By the end of WW1, war was fought as it is now; a combination of vehicles, infantry, and tactical artillery. At the beginning of the war, when they would attempt musket line tactics, they would get absoluetely shredded by machinegun fire, and the whole line would collapse. WW1 was the first time machine guns and artillery were used at such a massive scale, and with the setup of trenches, machineguns absolutely decimated infantry. Going over the top to take the other trench was literally hopping out of cover, and running over wide open landscape toward machinegun fire planted in some concrete pillbox, as well as rifle fire from all the other men occupy the trench. What made this worse was that some Generals lived in the past and fought war in the past; for example they would attempt only bayonet rushes with nothing in the barell, and as a result, got destroyed. That what happened at Gallipoli, they got destroyed by the Ottomans because Gallipoli was a tactical disaster. More then just machineguns and retarded generals, were the mustard gas and overall all the experimentak shit. What you need to understand about WW1 is that it was pretty much all experimental up until the end when they finally got their shit together at the start of the German Spring Offensives. The armies werent prepared to deal with the constant artillery bombardment, the mustard gas being launched into other trenches via artillery, etc etc.

Not to mention that right after the war began it turned from a war of motion into a war of attrition where literally everyside is losing thousands of men just to get a couple hundered feet of contested land.

In WWI weapons were getting CRAZY. Generals from the 19th century were using outmoded tactics in the face of weaponry unlike anything the world had ever seen. Similarly inflated casualties occurred in the Civil War, with generals using firing line volley tactics in a world where rifled barrels, repeating arms, and self-contained cartridges were taking hold.

Austria's Official History of the war tells events pretty well. I mean, it is literally an 8 volume day-by-day delineation, but every action is covered in detail. There are plenty of officer's quotes from those who fought in the skirmish and usually a brief analysis of why it went well or terribly bad.

> No one knew how to deal with machine guns and advancing across open ground.

Major General Monash was ignored for months and outright abused by US counterparts because he wanted to implement combined arms warfare.

> Formalized his idea of a mass immediate attack where men are covered by armor and artillery with no warning to the enemy since Gallipoli

The weapons to kill people had advanced far beyond the tactics to maneuver around the or blow through them. Only towards the end of the war did tanks come onto the battlefield which brought back the offensive option and ability to maneuver through trench lines.

yep, spencer repeating rifles were used by alot of the sharpshooting regiments in the ACW. The civil war was the war that saw rifle technology progress past tactics. WW1 saw artillery and machine gun technology progress past tactics. Both were slaughterhouses
