Introduction
There were 8.6 million casualties during World War 1 ('The Great War'), with the Allied Powers (the victors) losing 5.1 million and the Central Powers losing 3.5 million. The war was devastating to the countries involved, and was also known as the "war to end all wars" - until the second world war began.
