Answer 1

World War one was a total war that inflicted destruction to nearly every nation while creating permanent tensions between European countries.

The causalities were endless, reparations and debt injured the economy, and Europe had undergone major territorial changes in geography that brought outrage for nationalists and provoked an unbalance which then created a revolution of the European countries governments.
