The first months of fighting in the First World War had seen no major breakthrough from any side. The Germans had captured about ten percent of France, and reached within sixty miles of Paris, but then reached a stalemate as both sides fortified their positions with great long lines of trenches running from Belgium to the Swiss border.Both sides attempt to bring other countries into the war to help break the stalemate and to tip the balance in their favour. The Italians, though deeply divided, decide in the end to join the side of Britain, France and Russia. And an allied attack against the Ottomans fails at Gallipoli.www.patreon.com/historyeuropewww.historyeurope.netMusic composed by Freredich Chopin, Mazurka in C Sharp MinorPicture - Sinking of the LusitaniaTheme tune for the podcast by Nico Vettese, www.wetalkofdreams.com Hosted on Acast.
