Today I used my smart searching skills to complete my WW1 collage. I had fun learning about why WW1 took place in 1914. I have also learnt all about why there is armistice day on the 11 of november on the 11 year and on the 11 hour. Many people say that if Archduke Franz Ferdinand wasn't assassinated there wouldn't have been WW1 or 2. Around 135 countries took part the war the main countries were the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Austria Hungary, Russia and France. Did you know that over 15, 000 soldiers lost their lives because of the conflict? Are you aware that there were 53 nations in WW1? As strange as it may seem many people used 'Bayonets'?
Sadly any people lied about their ages to fight for their country and their kings and shockingly, 12 year old Sidney Lewis lied about his age and was sadly assassinated during the war. Before having to fight they were living in trenches and ate very hard biscuits that eventually helped them live!
