Abstract

The First World War, though it is often considered to have ended in 1918, has proven to be the root cause of many of the wars that have been fought across the globe throughout the twentieth and twenty first centuries. In this thesis, I will demonstrate how the First World War served as the ignition point for a century of near ceaseless warfare worldwide, with most of the conflicts that still rage today tracing their lineage back to the conditions of the First World War’s end.
