Here is a link I found with the help of the college librarian, on WW1. The link consists of videos, images, and articles that have to do with the First World War. For warning, you might have to use your college ID to gain access to the link.

The First World War also known as The Great War or The War to End all Wars, was from July 28, 1914 to November 11, 1918. It began with the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand. The war introduced new technology such early tanks, machine guns, airplanes, and Bio-weapons (mustard gas). One of the worst parts of the war was trench warfare with the term No Mans Land because if you were to advance you would get gun down. A lot of key historical figures fought in the great war such as Hitler, Patton, Rommel, Stalin, and Churchill who rose from its ashes and took vital roles in WW2. One figure who I admire during WW1 was Lawrence of Arabia. He helped fight off the forces of the Ottoman Empire.

This link is very interesting to look at if ever you need to do an assignment based on the Great War. I am thankful to the librarian who helped me find this link. It never hurts to ask for help. I so excited to learn about WW1 and WW2 in the up coming class lectures. I hope this will help your knowledge.
