Explanation:

  • The battle in the north of France, in the vicinity of the River Somme, began on July 1, 1916, and lasted until November 1, 1916.
  • In this battle of the First World War, the largest number of soldiers had participated so far, watching individual skirmishes in the war. From the very first day of the battle, the British had huge losses in humanity.
  • More than 57,000 British soldiers died, died later from severe wounds or disappeared that day. This number of casualties incurred by the British Army on the first day of the Battle of the Somme is greater than the total casualties of the British Army during the Crimean War, the Boer War and the Korean War! The French, however, had a smaller number of detachments in the Battle of the Somme and therefore a much smaller number of casualties than the British. Also, a disproportionate number of officers were killed on the first day of the fight. At the time, they still wore parade suits rather than camouflage, making it easier for the Germans to recognize and attack them. By November 1, 1916, the Allies and Central Forces had lost over one million soldiers together in the Battle of the Somme.
  • The war on the Western Front was mostly in the trenches. One of the longest battles of the First World War was the Battle of Verdun (February 21, 1916 - December 18, 1916). Certainly the trench fighting affected the length of the fighting itself. The French army has suffered heavy losses here. It is for this reason that in order to divert the attention of the Central Powers from Verdun, the British and a smaller number of French Army units begin a battle south and north of the Some River.
  • This goal of the Allied Army is somewhat met. German forces turned to more fighting in the Somme, and reduced the intensity of the war at Verdun. But on the other hand, the Allies had an even greater number of casualties on the Somme.
