The Course of the War
Schlieffen Plan did not materialise as planned for the Germans.
By the end of 1914, both sides stuck in a stalemate of bloody trench warfare.
Little land gained but heavy casualties.
It was very difficult to penetrate the formidable defence formed by a line of trenches. Hundreds of thousands of deaths were suffered in bloody trench warfare.
29
Crisis and Conflict: Impact of World War I Copyright 2006
The Germans’ intended lightning attack of France did not succeed. Instead their advances were slowed drastically by stiff Allied resistance.
Long lines of trenches dug from Belgium to the Swiss border ensured both sides got stuck in a fruitless yet bloody trench warfare
– a stalemate.
In 1914, the Germans failed to even reach Paris. The Schlieffen Plan had collapsed. They were drawn into a two-front war.
