World War I (WWI), which was predominantly called the World War or the Great War from its occurrence until 1939 (World War II), and the First World War or World War I thereafter, was a major war centred in Europe that began on 28 July 1914 and lasted until 11 November 1918. It involved all the world's great powers, which were assembled in two opposing alliances: the Allies (based on the Triple Entente of the United Kingdom, France and Russia) and the Central Powers (originally centred around the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy; but, as Austria–Hungary had taken the offensive against the agreement, Italy did not enter into the war). These alliances both reorganised (Italy fought for the Allies), and expanded as more nations entered the war. Ultimately more than 70 million military personnel, including 60 million Europeans, were mobilised in one of the largest wars in history. More than 9 million combatants were killed, largely because of enormous increases in lethality of weapons, thanks to new technology, without corresponding improvements in protection or mobility. It was the sixth-deadliest conflict in world history, subsequently paving the way for various political changes such as revolutions in the nations involved.

Killers on the prowl
Hell is on earth
Slaughter everywhere
The world's getting worse
Fires in the sky
Blood runs forever
When children cry
Hundred days of genocide
One million people have left to die
The world stood still
No tears, no cry
Hundred days of genocide
Don't close your eyes
It's time to react
Dead bodies around
It's a bloody fact
Brother killed brother
We don't have to wait
Blood red skies
Stop the hate
Hundred days of genocide
One million people have left to die
The world stood still
No tears, no cry
Hundred days of genocide
Hundred days of genocide
One million people have left to die
The world stood still
No tears, no cry
Hundred days of genocide
