It really reshaped much of the globe much more around states defined by nations rather than states defined by monarchies or states defined by empires.발음듣기
대기중
And it was also the first war where technology, or I would say modern technology - technology has always played a major role in wars.발음듣기
대기중
But it was the first time that much of what we consider to be modern technology played a huge role in the actual carrying out of the war.발음듣기
대기중
And to a large degree, this is what made the war so much bloodier, and one could argue, even more protracted.발음듣기
대기중
Here in this picture you have a machine gun, which obviously allows you to indiscriminately mow down folks.발음듣기
대기중
Barbed wire wasn't invented in World War I. It was invented many decades before in the 1800s.발음듣기
대기중
So any time someone wanted to gain ground, especially in one of the fronts where trench warfare was being used, it was a hugely, hugely, hugely bloody affair.발음듣기
대기중
The other technology that came into mainstream use in World War I was the use of gas, and in particular poison gas.발음듣기
대기중
And as you see these gentleman right over here, they're wearing gas masks because they're afraid that their opponent is going to use poison gas.발음듣기
대기중
And the benefit of gas in particular is let's say you have an artillery shell that you throw over and it doesn't hit anybody.발음듣기
대기중
But then it starts releasing a canister of - let me do that in a different color - it starts releasing a canister of gas.발음듣기
대기중
Chlorine gas, which immediately attacks the respiratory system of the person who inhales it.발음듣기
대기중
But even folks who view something like a machine gun as an acceptable thing tend to view these things as particularly ugly things to use.발음듣기
대기중
Other weapons that showed up in World War I, we talked about this in other videos, but the tank started to become a factor.발음듣기
대기중
When you talk about this trench type of thing, well, if you've got a big hulking beast, maybe that could roll through the barbed wire and take some beating and maybe eventually - so you could imagine a tank over here, it could eventually - and actually the tanks at this time did not have these big turrets.발음듣기
대기중
We've talked extensively about submarine warfare in World War I. The Germans especially used it, essentially to have a chance against the dominant British Navy.발음듣기
대기중
Unrestricted U-boat warfare was one of the primary reasons given by the Americans as to why they entered the war on the side of the entente.발음듣기
대기중
And in some ways the best foreshadowing of what would play a major, major, major role in future wars it was the bringing of heavier than air craft into the war.발음듣기
대기중
So before this, you had stuff like balloons and zeppelins used for reconnaissance, used to see where we should aim the artillery, things like that.발음듣기
대기중
But now you had the Wright brothers only, frankly, several years before inventing the engine powered heavier than air craft.발음듣기
대기중
And out of all of the folks involved in air to air combat, this gentleman right over here is probably the most famous.발음듣기
대기중
So this is obviously a black and white photograph, but maybe if I color it in for you, you'll get more of the feeling of what his plane might have looked like.발음듣기
대기중
So 80 confirmed wins, I guess you can say in combat, which is more than any other folks in World War I. So very, very famous pilot.발음듣기
대기중
He himself - when you're talking about any of the combatants in World War I did not have a long life expectancy.발음듣기
대기중
And he also, despite being the top pilot, the top ace, amongst all the pilots in World War I, he also ended up getting shot in the air in 1918.발음듣기
대기중
And when the people ran up to him, the accounts say, that his famous last words as he died, right when they ran up to him, was "kaput". So interesting.발음듣기
