Question 2

In World War I, the western front became an immovable mass of heavily armed, defensive trenches. Why did this happen, and what effect did it have on the war's progress?

Accepted Answer

Answer would ideally include:
The Germans expected to quickly march through Belgium and capture Paris, based on how quickly they had been able to do so in the Franco-Prussian War. In 1914, however, the Germans discovered that the Belgians fought back, the British were there to assist them, and the French had mobilized and were able to stall the lines. Both sides were equally matched in manpower and weapons, and the nature of modern weapons (including rapid-fire artillery barrages) discouraged direct attacks. Once both sides were dug in to their trenches, they sat there until the arrival of American forces dramatically increased the Anglo-French side.
