Military leaders of WW
For Great Britain
Field Marshall Douglas Haig is most associated with the Battle of the Somme in World War One. Douglas Haig was Britain’s commander-in-chief during the Somme battle and took much criticism for the sheer loss of life in this battle.
For France
Ferdinand Foch became supreme commander of Allied forces in World War One. Foch, along with Joseph Joffre and Philippe Pétain became one of the three most prominent French military officers in the war.
For Germany
Erich von Falkenhayn is most associated with the Battle of Verdun in 1916 – one of World War One’s bloodiest battles. Falkenhayn was criticised for his tactics at Verdun and after the war he tried to justify the tactics that he used – that led to the deaths of tens of thousands of German soldiers.
Political Leaders of WWI(mallory)

Herbert Henry Asquith and David Lloyd George were the prime ministers of the United Kingdom.
Events:
The main causes of World War I, which began in central Europe in late July 1914, included many factors, such as the conflicts and hostility between the great European powers of the four decades leading up to the war.
The Battle of Verdun, 1916A ten month long ordeal between the French and German armies. The battle was part of an unsuccessful German campaign to take the offensive on the western front. With an estimated 540,000 French and 430,000 German casualties and no strategic advantages were gained for either side.
The Battles of the Marne, 1914, 1918On September 4, 1914, the rapid advances of the German army through Belgium and northern France caused panic in the French army and troops were rushed from Paris in taxis to halt the advance. Combined with the BEF (British Expeditionary Force) the Germans were eventually halted and the War settled into the familiar defensive series of entrenchment's. The intervening four years had cost hundreds of thousands of lives and the armies were still, literally, exactly where they had started.
The Battles of Ypres, 1914, 1915, 1917The first, in 1914 was an attempt by the BEF to halt the rapid advances made by the Germans. The second, in 1915, was notable for the first use of poison gas by the Germans. However, it is the long-planned offensive of July 31, 1917, that holds the most significance. Total casualties for both sides had been approximately 250,000.
The Battle of the Somme, 1916
With the French Army being hard-pressed to the south at Verdun the British intended to breakthrough the German defences. French Command had the troops to keep uniformed lines and to march towards the enemy across no-man's land. For the meagre achievements, total losses on the British and Imperial side numbered 419,654 with German casualties between 450,000 and 680,000. When the offensive was eventually called off the British were still 3 miles short of Bapaume and Serre.
The Battle of Cambrai, 1917On November 20, 1917, A surprise artillery barrage started the offensive and 476 tanks, packed tightly for a mass attack moved against the German lines.
what other events were there & why were they important ?
The spark that started World War I was the assassination of Austria's Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie. The assassination occurred on June 28, 1914 while Ferdinand was visiting the city of Sarajevo in the Austro-Hungarian province of Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Although Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the nephew of Austria's emperor and heir-apparent to the throne, was not very well liked by most, his assassination by a Serb nationalist was viewed as a great excuse to attack Austria-Hungary's troublesome neighbor, Serbia.
However, instead of reacting quickly to the incident, Austria-Hungary made sure they had the backing of Germany, with whom they had a treaty, before they proceeded. This gave Serbia time to get the backing of Russia, with whom they had a treaty.
The calls for back-up didn't end there. Russia also had a treaty with France and Britain.
This meant that by the time Austria-Hungary officially declared war on Serbia on July 28, 1914, an entire month after the assassination, much of Europe had already become entangled in the dispute.
