YOU FORGET TO MENTION LATIN UNION GOLD STANDART

For France,my country 'only' ,around ONE MILLION AND HALF DEATH ,300,000 mutilated 42,000 blinded 15,000 broken faces,700,000 widows and more than 1,000,000 orphans.Of France's total population 1 out of 20 were killed. 52% of mobilized were killed or wounded.

Hmm, many of those things were already happening or being developed before Sarajevo. And then you do not mention Lenin’s brand of Communism and the SovietUnion.

World War I was a military victory for the Allies, but the Allies lost the peace due to their blind demands on punishment of the losers. This lessened the sacrifices of the lives lost during WWI because it was only 20 yrs later that more blood was being shed .

Apara Prakriti is that important center of incitement that induces inactivity to become active.

Large number of Indian soldiers sacrificed their lives during WWI. India was a British colony during WWI .

And Trump did want to go out in the rain, to honor the fallen soldiers. Total disgrace by BoneSpurs This Narcissist does not represent US, he only represents himself and bloodmoney ArmisticeDay100 100yearsago

World leaders gather in Paris a century after WWI armisticePARIS (AP) — Commemorations are underway around the world to mark the moment 100 years ago when the slaughter of World War I finally stopped. France, the epicenter of the first global conflict, was hosting the main international commemoration, pressing home the point that the world mustn't stumble into war again, as it did so quickly and catastrophically with World War II. The more than 60 world leaders scheduled to gather at precisely 11 a.m., a century after the cease-fire, included those with the power to destroy humanity if it ever stumbled into the folly of a World War III. 👍 But not Trump. He doesn’t like the way his hair looks when it gets wet.

Unsung heroes, animals were vital part of WWI war machinePARIS (AP) — They were messengers, spies and sentinels. They led cavalry charges, carried supplies to the front, and died by the millions during World War I. Horses, mules, dogs, pigeons, even a baboon, all were a vital — and for decades overlooked — part of the Allied war machine. Researchers have been hard-pressed to find official accounts of the services rendered by animals. Today, they are emerging as unsung heroes of the Great War. France recently decided to recognize their role in war. And in 2004, Britain installed a huge memorial to the vital contributions of animals on the edge of London's Hyde Park.

The Latest: World leaders mark 100 years since end of WWIPARIS (AP) — The Latest on commemorations a century after the end of World War I (all times local): 11:10 a.m. World leaders walked side by side to commemorate the end of World War I in a somber, rain-soaked line as bells finished tolling. Arriving a few minutes late, they missed the exact moment to commemorate the armistice that ended World War I. Fighter jets passed overhead as the leaders walked to the Arc de Triomphe. At 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, 1918, the devastating war came to a close. U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin were expected to arrive separately for the commemorations. So what? Who cares? This is not news. It's gossip. All world leaders lined up and waiting beneath Arc de Triomphe. Finally Trump arrives. America last! In Great Britain we remember at 11am and France is an hour in front
