The Early Middle Ages, 284--1000 (HIST 210)
In this lecture, Professor Freedman discusses the crisis and decline of Charlemagne's empire. Increasingly faced with external threats -- particularly the Viking invasions -- the Carolingian Empire ultimately collapsed from internal causes, because its rulers were unable effectively to manage such a large empire. In the absence of strong social infrastructure and an idea of loyalty to the ruler, government servants strove to make their positions hereditary and nobles sought to set up independent kingdoms. Although it only lasted for a short time, the Carolingian Empire helped shape the face of Europe, especially through the partitions of the Treaty of Verdun which created territories roughly equivalent to France and Germany.

The Treaty of Verdun, signed in August 843, was the first of the treaties that divided the Carolingian Empire into three kingdoms among the three surviving sons of Louis the Pious, the son and successor of Charlemagne. The treaty signed in Verdun-sur-Meuse ended the three-year Carolingian Civil War.

The Kingdom of East Francia was created in 843 as a partition of the Frankish Empire and result of the Treaty of Verdun. Through Crusades, conquests, and inheritance, it expanded significantly thought the next 200 years, becoming the Holy Roman Empire in 962 after the conquest of Rome. After this point, the Empire began to divide to the point where it was more of the union than a state, allowing foreign powers to control large swaths of imperial territory. It shrank to the benefit of France during the Renaissance, whilst other states, such as the Netherlands and Switzerland, broke off in 1648 due to the Peace of Westphalia. As Prussia and Austria became increasingly dominant through the 1700s, it finally came to an end when they were defeat at the hands of Napoleon in 1806. After Napoleon, a similar state was set up, the German Confederation, which would last almost until German Unification in 1871.

Verdun (Latin: Verodunum, meaning "strong fort") was founded by the Gauls (as its Celtic name shows; "Dunum" is the Latinized version of a Celtic word meaning oppidum). It has been the seat of the bishop of Verdun since the 4th century AD, with interruptions. In the Treaty of Verdun in AD 843, the empire of Charlemagne was divided into three parts.
The city has been famous for Dragées or sugared almonds from 1200 onwards; they were distributed at the baptism of French princes.[2]
Verdun was part of the middle kingdom of Lotharingia, and in 1374 it became an Imperial Free City of the Holy Roman Empire. The Bishopric of Verdun formed together with Tull (Toul) and Metz the Three Bishoprics, which were annexed by France in 1552 (recognized in 1648 by the Peace of Westphalia).
From 1624 to 1636, a large bastioned citadel was constructed on the site of the Abbey of Saint Vanne. In 1670, Vauban visited Verdun and drew up an ambitious scheme to fortify the whole city. Although much of his plan was built in the following decades, some of the elements were not completed until after the Napoleonic Wars. Despite the extensive fortifications, Verdun was captured by the Prussians in 1792, but abandoned by them after the Battle of Valmy. During the Napoleonic War, the citadel was used to hold British prisoners-of-war. In the Franco-Prussian War, Verdun was the last French fortress to surrender in 1870. Shortly afterwards, a new system of fortification was begun.[3] This consisted of a mutually supporting ring of 22 polygonal forts up to 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) from the city, and an inner ring of 6 forts

READ THE DESCRIPTION:
When I say "Czech Republic" I mean a Czech ruled country, also, I refer to the U.K. beginning around 1066 AD, France is when West Francia gains independence after the Treaty of Verdun, in 843 AD. Hungary should be 1000 AD for in 895 it was more or less a alliance of Nomadic Tribes, thus making Poland, founded in 966 AD, number 10. This list refers to when a country is first united, not continuous, ex. Norway, which was united in 872, not 895, my mistake, which was conquered by Denmark in 1397.

In AD 943, the treaty of Verdun divided up the empire of Charlemagne. The river Saône became the frontier between France and the Empire. It is thanks to this border location that Trévoux gained its particular political status.
From the 13th century, the Trévoux river toll became important, and the town built a castle and walls.
On the 30th of June 1417, the local baron issued a decree allowing the local Jewish population to continue to study the Talmud, contrary to the decision taken in Chambéry in January 1417 as a result of which Jewish books had been seized and burned.
In 1523, the French king François the 1st confiscated the Dombes region and founded a parliament for the region in Lyon.
At the end of the 17th century, two important sovereign princes, Anne-Marie Louise of Orléans, Duchess of Montpensier known as "la Grande Mademoiselle", and her successor Louis-Auguste of Bourbon, duke of Maine, raised two monuments which are still notable in the landscape - the Montpensier hospital and the Palace of the Dombes Parliament.
In 1560, the Dombes region fell to the Bourbons. The town became rich as the capital of Dombes principality and seat of its parliament from 1697 to 1771. The town is also known at this time for a dictionnary, printed there from 1704 to 1771 by the Jesuits.
In 1762, the principalit of the Dombes was definitively absorbed into France.
The town was a sub-prefecture of Ain until 1926.
From the end of the 19th century until the 1950s, Trévoux was the global capital of the manufacture of synthetic diamonds.

National Anthem of Kingdom of France.
The Kingdom of France was a medieval and early modern monarchy in western Europe. It was one of the most powerful states in Europe, a great power since the late Middle Ages and the Hundred Years' War. It was also an early colonial power, with significant possessions in north America.
France originated as west Francia, the western half of the Empire of Carolingia, with the Treaty of Verdun in 843. A branch of the Carolingian dynasty continued to rule until 987, when Hugh Capet was elected king and founded the Capetian dynasty. The territory remained known as Francia and its ruler as rex Francorum well into the high Middle Ages. The first king calling himself Roi de France was Philip II, in 1190. France continued to be ruled by the Capetian dynasty and their cadet lines: the Valois and Bourbon, until the monarchy was overthrown in 1792 during the Revolution de France.

The Kingdom of Germany or German Kingdom (Latin: Regnum Teutonicum, "Teutonic Kingdom") developed out of the eastern half of the former Carolingian Empire. Like medieval England and France, it began as "a conglomerate, an assemblage of a number of once separate and independent... gentes [peoples] and regna [kingdoms]." East Francia (Ostfrankenreich) was formed in embryo by the Treaty of Verdun in 843, and was ruled by the Carolingian dynasty until 911, after which the kingship was elective. The initial electors were the rulers of the stem duchies, who generally chose one of their own. After 962, when Otto I was crowned emperor, the kingdom formed the bulk of the Holy Roman Empire, which also included Italy (after 951), Bohemia (after 1004) and Burgundy (after 1032).
The term rex teutonicorum ("king of the Germans") first came into use in the chancery of Pope Gregory VII during the Investiture Controversy (late 11th century), perhaps as a polemical tool against the Emperor Henry IV. In the twelfth century, in order to stress the imperial and transnational character of their office, the emperors began to employ the title rex Romanorum (king of the Romans) on their election (by the prince-electors, seven German bishops and noblemen). Distinct titulature for Germany, Italy and Burgundy, which traditionally had their own courts, laws, and chanceries, gradually dropped from use. After the Reichsreform and Reformation settlement, the German part of the Holy Roman Empire was divided into Reichskreise (imperial circles), which effectively defined Germany against imperial Italy and the Bohemian Kingdom. There are nevertheless relatively few references to a German realm and an instability in the term's use.

Partial transcript: Here in the United States, the Zionists and their co-religionists have complete control of our government. For many reasons, too many and too complex to go into here at this time, the Zionists and their co-religionists rule these United States as though they were the absolute monarchs of this country. Now you may say that is a very broad statement, but let me show you what happened while we were all asleep.
What happened? World War I broke out in the summer of 1914. There are few people here my age who remember that. Now that war was waged on one side by Great Britain, France, and Russia; and on the other side by Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey.
Within two years Germany had won that war: not only won it nominally, but won it actually. The German submarines, which were a surprise to the world, had swept all the convoys from the Atlantic Ocean. Great Britain stood there without ammunition for her soldiers, with one week's food supply -- and after that, starvation. At that time, the French army had mutinied. They had lost 600,000 of the flower of French youth in the defense of Verdun on the Somme. The Russian army was defecting, they were picking up their toys and going home, they didn't want to play war anymore, they didn't like the Czar. And the Italian army had collapsed.
Not a shot had been fired on German soil. Not one enemy soldier had crossed the border into Germany. And yet, Germany was offering England peace terms. They offered England a negotiated peace on what the lawyers call a status quo ante basis. That means: "Let's call the war off, and let everything be as it was before the war started." England, in the summer of 1916 was considering that -- seriously. They had no choice. It was either accepting this negotiated peace that Germany was magnanimously offering them, or going on with the war and being totally defeated.
While that was going on, the Zionists in Germany, who represented the Zionists from Eastern Europe, went to the British War Cabinet and -- I am going to be brief because it's a long story, but I have all the documents to prove any statement that I make -- they said: "Look here. You can yet win this war. You don't have to give up. You don't have to accept the negotiated peace offered to you now by Germany. You can win this war if the United States will come in as your ally." The United States was not in the war at that time. We were fresh; we were young; we were rich; we were powerful. They told England: "We will guarantee to bring the United States into the war as your ally, to fight with you on your side, if you will promise us Palestine after you win the war." In other words, they made this deal: "We will get the United States into this war as your ally. The price you must pay is Palestine after you have won the war and defeated Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey." Now England had as much right to promise Palestine to anybody, as the United States would have to promise Japan to Ireland for any reason whatsoever. It's absolutely absurd that Great Britain, that never had any connection or any interest or any right in what is known as Palestine should offer it as coin of the realm to pay the Zionists for bringing the United States into the war. However, they did make that promise, in October of 1916. And shortly after that -- I don't know how many here remember it -- the United States, which was almost totally pro-German, entered the war as Britain's ally.
I say that the United States was almost totally pro-German because the newspapers here were controlled by Jews, the bankers were Jews, all the media of mass communications in this country were controlled by Jews; and they, the Jews, were pro-German. They were pro-German because many of them had come from Germany, and also they wanted to see Germany lick the Czar. The Jews didn't like the Czar, and they didn't want Russia to win this war. These German-Jew bankers, like Kuhn Loeb and the other big banking firms in the United States refused to finance France or England to the extent of one dollar. They stood aside and they said: "As long as France and England are tied up with Russia, not one cent!" But they poured money into Germany, they fought beside Germany against Russia, trying to lick the Czarist regime.

The Treaty of Verdun (Verdun-sur-Meuse, August 843) was a treaty between the three surviving sons of Louis the Pious, the son and successor of Charlemagne, which divided the Carolingian Empire into three kingdoms. It ended the three year long Carolingian Civil War.
When Louis the Pious died in 840, his eldest son, Lothair I, claimed overlordship over his brothers' kingdoms and supported the claim of his nephew Pepin II as king of Aquitaine, a large province in western France. After his brother Louis the German and his half-brother Charles the Bald defeated his forces at the Battle of Fontenay (841) and sealed their alliance with the Oaths of Strasbourg (842), Lothair became willing to negotiate instead of continuing the warfare.
Each of the three brothers was already established in one kingdom: Lothair in Italy, Louis the German in Bavaria, and Charles the Bald in Aquitaine. In the settlement, Lothair (who had been named co-emperor in 817) retained his title as emperor and:
After the death of Lothair in 855, Upper and Lower Burgundy (Arles and Provence) passed to his third son Charles of Provence, and the remaining territory north of the Alps to his second son Lothair II, after whom the hitherto nameless territory was called Lotharingia, which name eventually evolved into the modern Lorraine. Lothair's eldest son, Louis II inherited Italy and his father's claim to the Imperial title.

Verdun (French pronunciation: [vɛʁ.dœ̃]; medieval German: Wirten, official name before 1970 Verdun-sur-Meuse) is a city in the Meuse department in Lorraine in north-eastern France. It is a sub-prefecture of the department.
Verdun is the biggest city in Meuse, although the capital of the department is the slightly smaller city of Bar-le-Duc.
Verdun (Latin: Verodunum, meaning "strong fort") was founded by the Gauls (as its Celtic name shows; "Dunum" is the Latinized version of a Celtic word meaning oppidum). It has been the seat of the bishop of Verdun since the 4th century AD, with interruptions. In the Treaty of Verdun in AD 843, the empire of Charlemagne was divided into three parts.
At around this time Verdun was the centre of a Europe-wide thriving trade selling young boys to be enslaved eunuchs to the Islamic emirates of Iberia. Less controversially, the city has been famous for Dragées or sugared almonds from 1200 onwards; they were distributed at the baptism of French princes.
Verdun was part of the middle kingdom of Lotharingia, and in 1374 it became an Imperial Free City of the Holy Roman Empire. The Bishopric of Verdun formed together with Tull (Toul) and Metz the Three Bishoprics, which were annexed by France in 1552 (recognized in 1648 by the Peace of Westphalia).

Great Britain stood there without ammunition for her soldiers, with one week's food supply -- and after that, starvation. At that time, the French army had mutinied. They had lost 600,000 of the flower of French youth in the defense of Verdun on the Somme. The Russian army was defecting, they were picking up their toys and going home, they didn't want to play war anymore, they didn't like the Czar. And the Italian army had collapsed. Not a shot had been fired on German soil. Not one enemy soldier had crossed the border into Germany. And yet, Germany was offering England peace terms. They offered England a negotiated peace on what the lawyers call a status quo ante basis. That means: "Let's call the war off, and let everything be as it was before the war started." England, in the summer of 1916 was considering that -- seriously. They had no choice. It was either accepting this negotiated peace that Germany was magnanimously offering them, or going on with the war and being totally defeated. While that was going on, the Zionists in Germany, who represented the Zionists from Eastern Europe, went to the British War Cabinet and -- I am going to be brief because it's a long story, but I have all the documents to prove any statement that I make -- they said: "Look here. You can yet win this war. You don't have to give up. You don't have to accept the negotiated peace offered to you now by Germany. You can win this war if the United States will come in as your ally." The United States was not in the war at that time. We were fresh; we were young; we were rich; we were powerful. They told England: "We will guarantee to bring the United States into the war as your ally, to fight with you on your side, if you will promise us Palestine after you win the war." In other words, they made this deal: "We will get the United States into this war as your ally. The price you must pay is Palestine after you have won the war and defeated Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey." Now England had as much right to promise Palestine to anybody, as the United States would have to promise Japan to Ireland for any reason whatsoever. It's absolutely absurd that Great Britain, that never had any connection or any interest or any right in what is known as Palestine should offer it as coin of the realm to pay the Zionists for bringing the United States into the war. However, they did make that promise, in October of 1916. And shortly after that -- I don't know how many here remember it -- the United States, which was almost totally pro-German, entered the war as Britain's ally. I say that the United States was almost totally pro-German because the newspapers here were controlled by Jews, the bankers were Jews, all the media of mass communications in this country were controlled by Jews; and they, the Jews, were pro-German. They were pro-German because many of them had come from Germany, and also they wanted to see Germany lick the Czar. The Jews didn't like the Czar, and they didn't want Russia to win this war. These German-Jew bankers, like Kuhn Loeb and the other big banking firms in the United States refused to finance France or England to the extent of one dollar. They stood aside and they said: "As long as France and England are tied up with Russia, not one cent!" But they poured money into Germany, they fought beside Germany against Russia, trying to lick the Czarist regime. remainder of transcript: http://72.52.208.92/~gbpprorg/obama/benjamin-h-freedman-1961-speech.html -

21. The Early Middle Ages, 284--1000: Crisis of the Carolingians
The Early Middle Ages, 284--1000 (HIST 210) In this lecture, Professor Freedman discusses the crisis and decline of Charlemagne's empire. Increasingly faced with external threats -- particularly the Viking invasions -- the Carolingian Empire ultimately collapsed from internal causes, because its rulers were unable effectively to manage such a large empire. In the absence of strong social infrastructure and an idea of loyalty to the ruler, government servants strove to make their positions hereditary and nobles sought to set up independent kingdoms. Although it only lasted for a short time, the Carolingian Empire helped shape the face of Europe, especially through the partitions of the Treaty of Verdun which created territories roughly equivalent to France and Germany. 00:00 - Chapter ... -
Treaty of Verdun
The Treaty of Verdun, signed in August 843, was the first of the treaties that divided the Carolingian Empire into three kingdoms among the three surviving sons of Louis the Pious, the son and successor of Charlemagne. The treaty signed in Verdun-sur-Meuse ended the three-year Carolingian Civil War. This video is targeted to blind users.

The Holy Roman Empire: Every State, Every Year
The Kingdom of East Francia was created in 843 as a partition of the Frankish Empire and result of the Treaty of Verdun. Through Crusades, conquests, and inheritance, it expanded significantly thought the next 200 years, becoming the Holy Roman Empire in 962 after the conquest of Rome. After this point, the Empire began to divide to the point where it was more of the union than a state, allowing foreign powers to control large swaths of imperial territory. It shrank to the benefit of France during the Renaissance, whilst other states, such as the Netherlands and Switzerland, broke off in 1648 due to the Peace of Westphalia. As Prussia and Austria became increasingly dominant through the 1700s, it finally came to an end when they were defeat at the hands of Napoleon in 1806. After Napoleon... -

The war around Verdun in 3D
Verdun (Latin: Verodunum, meaning "strong fort") was founded by the Gauls (as its Celtic name shows; "Dunum" is the Latinized version of a Celtic word meaning oppidum). It has been the seat of the bishop of Verdun since the 4th century AD, with interruptions. In the Treaty of Verdun in AD 843, the empire of Charlemagne was divided into three parts. The city has been famous for Dragées or sugared almonds from 1200 onwards; they were distributed at the baptism of French princes.[2] Verdun was part of the middle kingdom of Lotharingia, and in 1374 it became an Imperial Free City of the Holy Roman Empire. The Bishopric of Verdun formed together with Tull (Toul) and Metz the Three Bishoprics, which were annexed by France in 1552 (recognized in 1648 by the Peace of Westphalia). From 1624 to 1... -
10 Oldest Countries in Europe
READ THE DESCRIPTION: When I say "Czech Republic" I mean a Czech ruled country, also, I refer to the U.K. beginning around 1066 AD, France is when West Francia gains independence after the Treaty of Verdun, in 843 AD. Hungary should be 1000 AD for in 895 it was more or less a alliance of Nomadic Tribes, thus making Poland, founded in 966 AD, number 10. This list refers to when a country is first united, not continuous, ex. Norway, which was united in 872, not 895, my mistake, which was conquered by Denmark in 1397. -
Trévoux, France
In AD 943, the treaty of Verdun divided up the empire of Charlemagne. The river Saône became the frontier between France and the Empire. It is thanks to this border location that Trévoux gained its particular political status. From the 13th century, the Trévoux river toll became important, and the town built a castle and walls. On the 30th of June 1417, the local baron issued a decree allowing the local Jewish population to continue to study the Talmud, contrary to the decision taken in Chambéry in January 1417 as a result of which Jewish books had been seized and burned. In 1523, the French king François the 1st confiscated the Dombes region and founded a parliament for the region in Lyon. At the end of the 17th century, two important sovereign princes, Anne-Marie Louise of Orléans, Duche... -
National Anthem of Kingdom of France – « Dieu sauve le Roi »
National Anthem of Kingdom of France. The Kingdom of France was a medieval and early modern monarchy in western Europe. It was one of the most powerful states in Europe, a great power since the late Middle Ages and the Hundred Years' War. It was also an early colonial power, with significant possessions in north America. France originated as west Francia, the western half of the Empire of Carolingia, with the Treaty of Verdun in 843. A branch of the Carolingian dynasty continued to rule until 987, when Hugh Capet was elected king and founded the Capetian dynasty. The territory remained known as Francia and its ruler as rex Francorum well into the high Middle Ages. The first king calling himself Roi de France was Philip II, in 1190. France continued to be ruled by the Capetian dynasty and t... -
Kingdom of Germany
The Kingdom of Germany or German Kingdom (Latin: Regnum Teutonicum, "Teutonic Kingdom") developed out of the eastern half of the former Carolingian Empire. Like medieval England and France, it began as "a conglomerate, an assemblage of a number of once separate and independent... gentes [peoples] and regna [kingdoms]." East Francia (Ostfrankenreich) was formed in embryo by the Treaty of Verdun in 843, and was ruled by the Carolingian dynasty until 911, after which the kingship was elective. The initial electors were the rulers of the stem duchies, who generally chose one of their own. After 962, when Otto I was crowned emperor, the kingdom formed the bulk of the Holy Roman Empire, which also included Italy (after 951), Bohemia (after 1004) and Burgundy (after 1032). The term rex teutonicor... -

Partial transcript: Here in the United States, the Zionists and their co-religionists have complete control of our government. For many reasons, too many and too complex to go into here at this time, the Zionists and their co-religionists rule these United States as though they were the absolute monarchs of this country. Now you may say that is a very broad statement, but let me show you what happened while we were all asleep. What happened? World War I broke out in the summer of 1914. There are few people here my age who remember that. Now that war was waged on one side by Great Britain, France, and Russia; and on the other side by Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey. Within two years Germany had won that war: not only won it nominally, but won it actually. The German submarines... -

Russia: Turkey breaching open skies treaty
Russia has accused Turkey of breaching the Open Skies treaty as tensions between the two countries escalate. The Russian Defense Ministry says Turkey refused to allow a reconnaissance plane to overfly its territory near Syria. Russia says the plane’s route was conveyed to the Turkish army in advance, however authorization was refused. The 2002 Open Skies treaty, signed by over 30 nations including Russia and Turkey, enables surveillance flights, giving all signatories the ability to gather information. This comes days after Ankara accused Moscow of a fresh violation of its airspace. Russia dismissed the claim as baseless propaganda. Ties between Ankara and Moscow plummeted after the shooting down of a Russian bomber by Turkey in November of last year. Russia retaliated by slapping cripplin... -

Legacy of WWI
World War I, “The Great War," is the supreme historical exemplar of the law of unintended consequences, its doleful echoes very much affecting us to this day. Three empires were dissolved and new nations created from the ruins. A treaty to end the war and create an international organization to protect the peace served only to set the stage for another, far worse conflict two decades later, widely considered to be but an extension of the first. But the Great War’s primary legacy was that it broke the West’s heart, and we are yet to recover. I am a retired soldier and amateur historian and this is an attempt to review the drastic political, geo-political, cultural, social and ideological changes that swept the world as a result of what many historians regard as the seminal catastrophe o... -

Verdun (Latin: Verodunum, meaning "strong fort") was founded by the Gauls (as its Celtic name shows; "Dunum" is the Latinized version of a Celtic word meaning oppidum). It has been the seat of the bishop of Verdun since the 4th century AD, with interruptions. In the Treaty of Verdun in AD 843, the empire of Charlemagne was divided into three parts.
The city has been famous for Dragées or sugared almonds from 1200 onwards; they were distributed at the baptism of French princes.[2]
Verdun was part of the middle kingdom of Lotharingia, and in 1374 it became an Imperial Free City of the Holy Roman Empire. The Bishopric of Verdun formed together with Tull (Toul) and Metz the Three Bishoprics, which were annexed by France in 1552 (recognized in 1648 by the Peace of Westphalia).
From 1624 to 1636, a large bastioned citadel was constructed on the site of the Abbey of Saint Vanne. In 1670, Vauban visited Verdun and drew up an ambitious scheme to fortify the whole city. Although much of his plan was built in the following decades, some of the elements were not completed until after the Napoleonic Wars. Despite the extensive fortifications, Verdun was captured by the Prussians in 1792, but abandoned by them after the Battle of Valmy. During the Napoleonic War, the citadel was used to hold British prisoners-of-war. In the Franco-Prussian War, Verdun was the last French fortress to surrender in 1870. Shortly afterwards, a new system of fortification was begun.[3] This consisted of a mutually supporting ring of 22 polygonal forts up to 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) from the city, and an inner ring of 6 forts

READ THE DESCRIPTION:
When I say "Czech Republic" I mean a Czech ruled country, also, I refer to the U.K. beginning around 1066 AD, France is when West Francia gains independence after the Treaty of Verdun, in 843 AD. Hungary should be 1000 AD for in 895 it was more or less a alliance of Nomadic Tribes, thus making Poland, founded in 966 AD, number 10. This list refers to when a country is first united, not continuous, ex. Norway, which was united in 872, not 895, my mistake, which was conquered by Denmark in 1397.

In AD 943, the treaty of Verdun divided up the empire of Charlemagne. The river Saône became the frontier between France and the Empire. It is thanks to this border location that Trévoux gained its particular political status.
From the 13th century, the Trévoux river toll became important, and the town built a castle and walls.
On the 30th of June 1417, the local baron issued a decree allowing the local Jewish population to continue to study the Talmud, contrary to the decision taken in Chambéry in January 1417 as a result of which Jewish books had been seized and burned.
In 1523, the French king François the 1st confiscated the Dombes region and founded a parliament for the region in Lyon.
At the end of the 17th century, two important sovereign princes, Anne-Marie Louise of Orléans, Duchess of Montpensier known as "la Grande Mademoiselle", and her successor Louis-Auguste of Bourbon, duke of Maine, raised two monuments which are still notable in the landscape - the Montpensier hospital and the Palace of the Dombes Parliament.
In 1560, the Dombes region fell to the Bourbons. The town became rich as the capital of Dombes principality and seat of its parliament from 1697 to 1771. The town is also known at this time for a dictionnary, printed there from 1704 to 1771 by the Jesuits.
In 1762, the principalit of the Dombes was definitively absorbed into France.
The town was a sub-prefecture of Ain until 1926.
From the end of the 19th century until the 1950s, Trévoux was the global capital of the manufacture of synthetic diamonds.

National Anthem of Kingdom of France.
The Kingdom of France was a medieval and early modern monarchy in western Europe. It was one of the most powerful states in Europe, a great power since the late Middle Ages and the Hundred Years' War. It was also an early colonial power, with significant possessions in north America.
France originated as west Francia, the western half of the Empire of Carolingia, with the Treaty of Verdun in 843. A branch of the Carolingian dynasty continued to rule until 987, when Hugh Capet was elected king and founded the Capetian dynasty. The territory remained known as Francia and its ruler as rex Francorum well into the high Middle Ages. The first king calling himself Roi de France was Philip II, in 1190. France continued to be ruled by the Capetian dynasty and their cadet lines: the Valois and Bourbon, until the monarchy was overthrown in 1792 during the Revolution de France.

The Kingdom of Germany or German Kingdom (Latin: Regnum Teutonicum, "Teutonic Kingdom") developed out of the eastern half of the former Carolingian Empire. Like medieval England and France, it began as "a conglomerate, an assemblage of a number of once separate and independent... gentes [peoples] and regna [kingdoms]." East Francia (Ostfrankenreich) was formed in embryo by the Treaty of Verdun in 843, and was ruled by the Carolingian dynasty until 911, after which the kingship was elective. The initial electors were the rulers of the stem duchies, who generally chose one of their own. After 962, when Otto I was crowned emperor, the kingdom formed the bulk of the Holy Roman Empire, which also included Italy (after 951), Bohemia (after 1004) and Burgundy (after 1032).
The term rex teutonicorum ("king of the Germans") first came into use in the chancery of Pope Gregory VII during the Investiture Controversy (late 11th century), perhaps as a polemical tool against the Emperor Henry IV. In the twelfth century, in order to stress the imperial and transnational character of their office, the emperors began to employ the title rex Romanorum (king of the Romans) on their election (by the prince-electors, seven German bishops and noblemen). Distinct titulature for Germany, Italy and Burgundy, which traditionally had their own courts, laws, and chanceries, gradually dropped from use. After the Reichsreform and Reformation settlement, the German part of the Holy Roman Empire was divided into Reichskreise (imperial circles), which effectively defined Germany against imperial Italy and the Bohemian Kingdom. There are nevertheless relatively few references to a German realm and an instability in the term's use.

Partial transcript: Here in the United States, the Zionists and their co-religionists have complete control of our government. For many reasons, too many and too complex to go into here at this time, the Zionists and their co-religionists rule these United States as though they were the absolute monarchs of this country. Now you may say that is a very broad statement, but let me show you what happened while we were all asleep.
What happened? World War I broke out in the summer of 1914. There are few people here my age who remember that. Now that war was waged on one side by Great Britain, France, and Russia; and on the other side by Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey.
Within two years Germany had won that war: not only won it nominally, but won it actually. The German submarines, which were a surprise to the world, had swept all the convoys from the Atlantic Ocean. Great Britain stood there without ammunition for her soldiers, with one week's food supply -- and after that, starvation. At that time, the French army had mutinied. They had lost 600,000 of the flower of French youth in the defense of Verdun on the Somme. The Russian army was defecting, they were picking up their toys and going home, they didn't want to play war anymore, they didn't like the Czar. And the Italian army had collapsed.
Not a shot had been fired on German soil. Not one enemy soldier had crossed the border into Germany. And yet, Germany was offering England peace terms. They offered England a negotiated peace on what the lawyers call a status quo ante basis. That means: "Let's call the war off, and let everything be as it was before the war started." England, in the summer of 1916 was considering that -- seriously. They had no choice. It was either accepting this negotiated peace that Germany was magnanimously offering them, or going on with the war and being totally defeated.
While that was going on, the Zionists in Germany, who represented the Zionists from Eastern Europe, went to the British War Cabinet and -- I am going to be brief because it's a long story, but I have all the documents to prove any statement that I make -- they said: "Look here. You can yet win this war. You don't have to give up. You don't have to accept the negotiated peace offered to you now by Germany. You can win this war if the United States will come in as your ally." The United States was not in the war at that time. We were fresh; we were young; we were rich; we were powerful. They told England: "We will guarantee to bring the United States into the war as your ally, to fight with you on your side, if you will promise us Palestine after you win the war." In other words, they made this deal: "We will get the United States into this war as your ally. The price you must pay is Palestine after you have won the war and defeated Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey." Now England had as much right to promise Palestine to anybody, as the United States would have to promise Japan to Ireland for any reason whatsoever. It's absolutely absurd that Great Britain, that never had any connection or any interest or any right in what is known as Palestine should offer it as coin of the realm to pay the Zionists for bringing the United States into the war. However, they did make that promise, in October of 1916. And shortly after that -- I don't know how many here remember it -- the United States, which was almost totally pro-German, entered the war as Britain's ally.
I say that the United States was almost totally pro-German because the newspapers here were controlled by Jews, the bankers were Jews, all the media of mass communications in this country were controlled by Jews; and they, the Jews, were pro-German. They were pro-German because many of them had come from Germany, and also they wanted to see Germany lick the Czar. The Jews didn't like the Czar, and they didn't want Russia to win this war. These German-Jew bankers, like Kuhn Loeb and the other big banking firms in the United States refused to finance France or England to the extent of one dollar. They stood aside and they said: "As long as France and England are tied up with Russia, not one cent!" But they poured money into Germany, they fought beside Germany against Russia, trying to lick the Czarist regime.

Lyric subtitles and interactive transcript are available.
Lyrics:
[Spoken]
After all this war
we must come together
To plan for new peace
And punish those who began the terror
And place them in the Hall of Shame.
[Verse 1]
We are
Yeah I said it
We are
We are League of Nations
Pledge your allegiance
Taking German property
All German everything
German Troops, German Planes
All German everything
And we take their submarines
no more Anschluss mergers
We'd get more in depth
If you Frenchies really real enough
Taking back the Saarland
give it back later
But for now let us get back to this treaty
Got a couple Baltic states, gonna go and make them free
Gotta make them Germans pay for all this war debris
Yeah I'm talkin' six comma
nine zeros
dot zero
what up
Wilson runnin' circles round Paris
14 point up
[Chorus]
Standing in the Hall of Shame
And league knows who's to blame
'Cause France wants to take an aim
It will lead to many reclaims
G 'll be on the walls of the Hall of Shame
[Verse 2]
Verdun
Yeah I said it
We're done
You can call me Wilson
work for the long run
with the 14 point plan
Self-determination
Treaty of Versailles
It's the return of freedom
Peace man
(Auh! Auh!)
And blame all of the Germans
in Article 2-3-1
(Ah!)
Weimar Republic
forced to give up all its
Colonies away, as mandates,
We got a table full of power
That we use to set things straight
(Yeah!)
And limit German domain
demobilize the Rhine
Take Alsace and Lorraine
(Yeah!)
Whole Europe now fixed
So my treaty lookin' like dictionary thick
[Chorus]
Standing in the Hall of Shame
And league knows who's to blame
'Cause France wants to take an aim
It will lead to many reclaims
G 'll be on the walls of the Hall of Shame
Treaty of Versailles
Treaty of Versailles
Treaty of Versailles
Treaty of Versailles
Standing in the Hall of Shame!
[Verse 3]
It's crazy how you can go from being potent
to have your country all beaten and broken
All of my land was not taken but stolen
Used to formulate the land of new Poland
Self-determinate
citizens to the states
That's the thing that Wilson really debates
It ain't happening
So we are on a crash course
What you think the League for
to stop any future wars?
But I know what Congress is thinking
All these senators won't sign nothing
I could spend my whole life good will hunting
Only good will come if Congress starts signing
But I know that they all be rightwing
14 points, ungh...
Free Trading
Start Disarming
Safe Sailing
And we need to stop all future allying
Protect the world against any communist left-wings
I'm just tryin' to change the world for the bettering
Germany
Baby
You need to start abiding
But have we ever had peace without fighting?
What's that, France?
Baby, still scared?
Free the Rhine.
What?
Let's declare
The Anglo-French-American
Treaty to appease
Germans feeling like they runnin'
But it's what we do for peace
[Chorus]
Standing in the Hall of Shame
And league knows who's to blame
'Cause France wants to take an aim
It will lead to many reclaims
G 'll be on the walls of the Hall of Shame
(Treaty of Versailles)
Versailles will be the greatest
Versailles will be the best
(Treaty of Versailles)
Versailles will put Germany down to rest
(Treaty of Versailles)
They will meet in Paris
G won't beat the war
(Treaty of Versailles)
Wilson's got a plan early at Congress's door
(Treaty of Versailles)
You can meet the Big Four
You can see George
(Treaty of Versailles)
You can block Clemenceau
You can face Orlando
(Treaty of Versailles)
You can be like Wilson
Come meet the League
The Treaty of Versailles will leave the guilty Germans
Standing in the Hall of Shame!

German Troops, German Planes
All German everything
And we take their submarines
no more Anschluss mergers
We'd get more in depth
If you Frenchies really real enough
Taking back the Saarland
give it back later
But for now let us get back to this treaty
Got a couple Baltic states, gonna go and make them free
Gotta make them Germans pay for all this war debris
Yeah I'm talkin' six comma
nine zeros
dot zero
what up
Wilson runnin' circles round Paris
14 point up
[Chorus]
Standing in the Hall of Shame
And league knows who's to blame
'Cause France wants to take an aim
It will lead to many reclaims
G 'll be on the walls of the Hall of Shame
[Verse 2]
Verdun
Yeah I said it
We're done
You can call me Wilson
work for the long run
with the 14 point plan
Self-determination
Treaty of Versailles
It's the return of freedom
Peace man
(Auh! Auh!)
And blame all of the Germans
in Article 2-3-1
(Ah!)
Weimar Republic
forced to give up all its
Colonies away, as mandates,
We got a table full of power
That we use to set things straight
(Yeah!)
And limit German domain
demobilize the Rhine
Take Alsace and Lorraine
(Yeah!)
Whole Europe now fixed
So my treaty lookin' like dictionary thick
[Chorus]
Standing in the Hall of Shame
And league knows who's to blame
'Cause France wants to take an aim
It will lead to many reclaims
G 'll be on the walls of the Hall of Shame
Treaty of Versailles
Treaty of Versailles
Treaty of Versailles
Treaty of Versailles
Standing in the Hall of Shame!
[Verse 3]
It's crazy how you can go from being potent
to have your country all beaten and broken
All of my land was not taken but stolen
Used to formulate the land of new Poland
Self-determinate
citizens to the states
That's the thing that Wilson really debates
It ain't happening
So we are on a crash course
What you think the League for
to stop any future wars?
But I know what Congress is thinking
All these senators won't sign nothing
I could spend my whole life good will hunting
Only good will come if Congress starts signing
But I know that they all be rightwing
14 points, ungh...
Free Trading
Start Disarming
Safe Sailing
And we need to stop all future allying
Protect the world against any communist left-wings
I'm just tryin' to change the world for the bettering
Germany
Baby
You need to start abiding
But have we ever had peace without fighting?
What's that, France?
Baby, still scared?
Free the Rhine.
What?
Let's declare
The Anglo-French-American
Treaty to appease
Germans feeling like they runnin'
But it's what we do for peace
[Chorus]
Standing in the Hall of Shame
And league knows who's to blame
'Cause France wants to take an aim
It will lead to many reclaims
G 'll be on the walls of the Hall of Shame
(Treaty of Versailles)
Versailles will be the greatest
Versailles will be the best
(Treaty of Versailles)
Versailles will put Germany down to rest
(Treaty of Versailles)
They will meet in Paris
G won't beat the war
(Treaty of Versailles)
Wilson's got a plan early at Congress's door
(Treaty of Versailles)
You can meet the Big Four
You can see George
(Treaty of Versailles)
You can block Clemenceau
You can face Orlando
(Treaty of Versailles)
You can be like Wilson
Come meet the League
The Treaty of Versailles will leave the guilty Germans
Standing in the Hall of Shame!

Russia has accused Turkey of breaching the Open Skies treaty as tensions between the two countries escalate.
The Russian Defense Ministry says Turkey refused to allow a reconnaissance plane to overfly its territory near Syria. Russia says the plane’s route was conveyed to the Turkish army in advance, however authorization was refused. The 2002 Open Skies treaty, signed by over 30 nations including Russia and Turkey, enables surveillance flights, giving all signatories the ability to gather information. This comes days after Ankara accused Moscow of a fresh violation of its airspace. Russia dismissed the claim as baseless propaganda. Ties between Ankara and Moscow plummeted after the shooting down of a Russian bomber by Turkey in November of last year. Russia retaliated by slapping crippling economic sanctions on Turkey.

World War I, “The Great War," is the supreme historical exemplar of the law of unintended consequences, its doleful echoes very much affecting us to this day.
Three empires were dissolved and new nations created from the ruins. A treaty to end the war and create an international organization to protect the peace served only to set the stage for another, far worse conflict two decades later, widely considered to be but an extension of the first. But the Great War’s primary legacy was that it broke the West’s heart, and we are yet to recover.
I am a retired soldier and amateur historian and this is an attempt to review the drastic political, geo-political, cultural, social and ideological changes that swept the world as a result of what many historians regard as the seminal catastrophe of the modern era.
ANTHEM FOR DOOMED YOUTH
What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?
Only the monstrous anger of the guns.
Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattle
Can patter out their hasty orisons.
No mockeries now for them; no prayers nor bells;
Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs, –
The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells;
And bugles calling for them from sad shires.
What candles may be held to speed them all?
Not in the hands of boys but in their eyes
Shall shine the holy glimmers of goodbyes.
The pallor of girls' brows shall be their pall;
Their flowers the tenderness of patient minds,
And each slow dusk a drawing-down of blinds.
Wilfred Owen, 1917

Suggested Reading:
Keegan, John The First World War New York: Random House, 1998
An excellent single volume treatment of the entire war covering its political, military, economic, and social aspects, written by a gifted historian and keen student of the human dimension of military history
Tuchman, Barbara W. The Proud Tower: A Portrait of the World Before the War, 1890-1914 New York: Random House, 2004
The world destroyed by the Great War is beautifully described by one of the most gifted writers of our time. The Art Nouveau Paris Metro station entrances are still there but the spirit that animated them died in the mud of Verdun, the Somme and Passchendaele.
Reynolds, David The Long Shadow: The Legacies of the Great War in the Twentieth Century New York: W.W. Norton & Company, 2014
This is a thorough and scholarly treatment of the many “gifts” bestowed on the world by the Great War, some of which may surprise you. It is written from the Anglo-Saxon perspective.
Tuchman, Barbara W. The Guns of August New York: Random House, 1962
The tragic tale of Europe’s helpless slide into the abyss has never been better told. Ms. Tuchman is a proponent of the “accidental” explanation for the start of the war, much disputed by other historians.
Barthas, Louis Poilu: The World War I Notebooks of Corporal Louis Barthas, Barrelmaker 1914-1918 New Haven: Yale University Press, 2014 (English Translation)
A French barrel maker and dedicated socialist is swept into the war and keeps a careful, at times funny, and always insightful journal of his experiences as a common French soldier, a “Poilu” or “hairy one.” Only just recently translated.
Hastings, Max Catastrophe 1914: Europe Goes to War New York: Random House, 2013
An accessible treatment of the start of the Great War, completed recently and reflecting the current prevailing view that the Central Powers hold much of the responsibility for the war, not so much for starting it, but not stopping it when they could easily have done so.

1912-1931: Omar Mukhtar leads a heroic resistance in the Italian North Africa (now Libya) against the Italians.
1914-1918: The First World War: A useless war, prolonged mainly to satisfy the nationalistic egos, millions die in the trench warfare in which the borders barely moved, even after tremendous loss of life, e.g., on the first day of the Battle of Somme (1st July 1916), the British suffered 57,000 casualties.

1920: The Treaty of Sevres: The Ottoman Caliphate broken into many countries (based on secret agreements among the Allied Powers, going back to 1915). The Ottoman Caliphate loses Middle East (about 174,900 sq. miles). These will ultimately become like colonies of France and Britain.

1920: British become rulers of Jordan and Palestine under the British Mandate.
1920: Faisal I (a friend of T.E. Lawrence, chosen by Winston Churchill, then the Colonial Secretary) becomes the King of Iraq and Syria.
1920: Maj. Gen. Edmund Ironside (commander of British forces in Persia) forces the appointment of Col. Reza Khan as the commander of the Persian Cossack Guard (bodyguards for the Persian King, Ahmed Shah, originally established and then commanded by Russians). Ironside once wrote that Reza Khan was the most manly Persian he had ever met.

1921 (21 Feb): Reza Khan marched on Tehran with 3,000 Cossacks and instals himself as the C-in-C of the armed forces. Ironside says: so far so good.

The Last Platoon: British veterans of the Great War (Part 1 of 2)
This two-part BBC series from 2005 interviewed many of the last surviving British veterans of the First World War. With some emotive reconstructed footage, and much outstanding archive materials, the films enabled those old gentlemen to express for the final time their memories of the conflict. Uploaded for educational purposes only. Any advertising is unbidden by me. -
Veterans of the Great War
This is a series of interviews with veterans of the First World War. All of these old gentlemen have now passed away, but I believe their stories need to be preserved for all time. Students who study aspects of life on the front line will find this film very useful, and there is some remarkable footage to accompany the interviews. See also "Harry Patch: The Last British Tommy", also on this channel. Uploaded for educational purposes only. -
Exclusive Interview: Canada is ready to engage with Russia to make its position on Ukraine clear
Canada continues to loudly proclaim both its support for Ukraine and its condemnation of Russian aggression in the Donbas. A show of the 'special relationship' between Ukraine and Canada came recently, when a delegation from Ottawa including Foreign Affairs Minister Stéphane Dion visited Kyiv. Ukrainian-Canadian parliamentarian Borys Wrzesnewskyj was among those on the trip. Joining us in the Ukraine Today newsroom, he shed light on the policy of Canada's new Liberal government toward Russia.

She received the first of her two Pulitzer prizes for this 1962 masterpiece on World War I. The documentary was made in 1965. Barbara Tuchman was highly respected for her ability to present complex subjects and present them with clarity. Until I read the previous review, I have never heard of anyone accusing her of hating Germany or its people or of her book being anti-German propaganda. But there are pictures of shot civilians and movies of smoldering ruins. Then again, there are people who claim the Holocaust never took place and is just anti-Nazi propaganda... Facts: On August 3 1914, Germany declared war on France. The German invasion plan f... -

Galactic Civilizations 3 Review
Never trust a Drengin. That’s what I’ve learnt from my time with Stardock’s excellent Galactic Civilizations 3. They’ll screw you every time. I tried. Honestly, I gave them every chance. After all, my expansive Krynn Empire was a bastion of enlightenment and spiritual purity. At least on the surface. Behind the scenes my diplomats and spies held a noose around the neck of the galaxy, assuring my dominance of the United Planets (a kind of galactic U.N), and spreading my influence ever further through cultural treaties, propaganda stations, and good old-fashioned bribery. Though the reach of the Krynn was awe-inspiring, the troublesome, warlike Drengin were settled in a distant cluster of stars, far enough away that they thought they could defy me openly by raiding my bustling trade routes,... -

World War 1 (100 year Anniversary Radio Play)
Thumbnail image from: http://www.oldmagazinearticles.com/ww1_sleeping_arrangements World War I (WWI) or First World War (called at the time the Great War) was a major war centred on Europe that began in the summer of 1914. The fighting ended in November 1918. This conflict involved all of the world's great powers,[4] assembled in two opposing alliances: the Allies (centred around the Triple Entente) and the Central Powers.[5] More than 70 million military personnel, including 60 million Europeans, were mobilised in one of the largest wars in history.[6][7] More than 9 million combatants were killed, due largely to great technological advances in firepower without corresponding advances in mobility. It was the second deadliest conflict in Western history.[8] The assassination on 28 June 19...

Facts: On August 3 1914, Germany declared war on France. The German invasion plan for France called for an attack through Belgium, instead of through the heavily defended Franco-German border. Belgium was neutral and its neutrality was protected by treaty with Great Britain. The Germans attacked on August 3rd. The next day, August 4th, Great Britain declared war on Germany. Germany warned Belgium that they only wanted to reach France and if Belgium complied, there wouldn't be any trouble. Despite its small army, Belgium chose to protect its sovereignty and its honor and paid for it.

Transcript:
In you introduction you said that the First World War was an industrial war. And indeed, you've only got to drive two hours up the A4 from here and visit the battlefield at Verdun to see exactly what you were talking about. For those who haven't visited I think it's probably the grimmest battlefield I've certainly visited on the Western Front or indeed anywhere in the world.
And it was something that had such a huge psychological effect on France that it very much dominated the thinking of Monnet and Schumann post-1945, that this awful think must not happen again. And those of us in politics will all remember the rather famous photograph of quite a large German Chancellor Kohl and a rather small French president Mitterrand, holding hands, standing in front of that ossiary at Douaumont.
And so the whole European project comes from the disaster that was sparked by the First World War and it is entirely understandable that people should have sought ways to prevent such awfulness.
The difficulty is that they chose the wrong target. Monnet and Schumann decided - and it's shared today by Mr Barroso and the Cohn-Bendits and others - they decided that it was the existence of Nation State that led to war and therefore we have to abolish Nation State.
Actually, what we should have focussed on post-1945, isn't the abolition of states, it's to make sure that the European states were democratic, because democratic nation states do not go to war with eachother.
So I have to say that I believe the whole European project is based on a falsehood - and it's potentially a dangerous falsehood, because if you try to impose a new flag, a new anthem, a new president, a new army, police force, foreign policy, whatever else - if you try to impose that without first seeking the consent of the people, you're in danger actually of creating the very nationalisms and resentment that you sought to snuff out in the first place.
We've done this all before. We did it after the First World War in the Balkans. We said we can't have all these little Balkan states go around fighting with eachother - let's bring them together, let's give them one flag, one anthem, one president and let's call it Yugoslavia. And it led to horrific wars since 1990, the deaths of tens of thousands of people, as people have fought to get out of a false state.
The European Union is making a very similar mistake because there is no consent for this project. I've heard people this morning, talking about the need for a United States of Europe on a federal model. You can only have that if people give consent for it, and nobody has.
And when you put the Constitution [Lisbon treaty prototype] to the peoples of Europe - the first time you really come clean with the electors - they rejected it.
I'm not against Europe, but I'm against this Europe. I want a Europe of independent, sovereign nation states that trade together, that work together, that cooperate together, and I believe the European Elections this year will mark a turning point. The tide is turning. You're backing an outdated model that seeks to get rid of a problem that actually hasn't existed since 1945.
Thank you.

Galactic Civilizations 3 Review

Never trust a Drengin. That’s what I’ve learnt from my time with Stardock’s excellent Galactic Civilizations 3. They’ll screw you every time.
I tried. Honestly...
Never trust a Drengin. That’s what I’ve learnt from my time with Stardock’s excellent Galactic Civilizations 3. They’ll screw you every time.
I tried. Honestly, I gave them every chance. After all, my expansive Krynn Empire was a bastion of enlightenment and spiritual purity. At least on the surface. Behind the scenes my diplomats and spies held a noose around the neck of the galaxy, assuring my dominance of the United Planets (a kind of galactic U.N), and spreading my influence ever further through cultural treaties, propaganda stations, and good old-fashioned bribery. Though the reach of the Krynn was awe-inspiring, the troublesome, warlike Drengin were settled in a distant cluster of stars, far enough away that they thought they could defy me openly by raiding my bustling trade routes, and attacking my vulnerable allies and protectorates. Including some short-tempered space squirrels that I was really rather fond of. This would not stand.

World War I (WWI) or First World War (called at the time the Great War) was a major war centred on Europe that began in the summer of 1914. The fighting ended in November 1918. This conflict involved all of the world's great powers,[4] assembled in two opposing alliances: the Allies (centred around the Triple Entente) and the Central Powers.[5] More than 70 million military personnel, including 60 million Europeans, were mobilised in one of the largest wars in history.[6][7] More than 9 million combatants were killed, due largely to great technological advances in firepower without corresponding advances in mobility. It was the second deadliest conflict in Western history.[8]
The assassination on 28 June 1914 of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, the heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary, was the proximate trigger of the war. Long-term causes, such as imperialistic foreign policies of the great powers of Europe, such as the German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Russian Empire, the British Empire, France, and Italy, played a major role. Ferdinand's assassination by a Yugoslav nationalist resulted in a Habsburg ultimatum against the Kingdom of Serbia.[9][10] Several alliances formed over the past decades were invoked, so within weeks the major powers were at war; via their colonies, the conflict soon spread around the world.
On 28 July, the conflict opened with the Austro-Hungarian invasion of Serbia,[11][12] followed by the German invasion of Belgium, Luxembourg and France; and a Russian attack against Germany. After the German march on Paris was brought to a halt, the Western Front settled into a static battle of attrition with a trench line that changed little until 1917. In the East, the Russian army successfully fought against the Austro-Hungarian forces but was forced back by the German army. Additional fronts opened after the Ottoman Empire joined the war in 1914, Italy and Bulgaria in 1915 and Romania in 1916. The Russian Empire collapsed in 1917, and Russia left the war after the October Revolution later that year. After a 1918 German offensive along the western front, United States forces entered the trenches and the Allies drove back the German armies in a series of successful offensives. Germany agreed to a cease-fire on 11 November 1918, later known as Armistice Day.
By the war's end, four major imperial powers—the German, Russian, Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman Empires—had been militarily and politically defeated. The latter two ceased to exist.[13] The revolutionised Soviet Union emerged from the Russian Empire, while the map of central Europe was completely redrawn into several smaller states.[14] The League of Nations was formed in the hope of preventing another such conflict. The European nationalism spawned by the war and the breakup of empires, and the repercussions of Germany's defeat and the Treaty of Versailles led to the beginning of World War II in 1939.[15]
