Western Front Germany had hopes of sweeping around Paris to
capture it. They were halted outside of Paris at the First
Battle of the Marne in September. War quickly turned into a stalemate, as neither
the French or Germans could dislodge the other from the trenches they had dug for shelter.
Trench warfare kept both sides in virtually the same positions for four years.

War and Women WWI created new roles for women.
As men left for war, women took over their jobs. Some of these jobs included truck drivers, chimney
sweeps, and factory workers in heavy industry.
These jobs and benefits would not last. After returning home from the war, the men would go back to their old jobs.

murdered the czar and his family.
