Connection Across Time

World War I was a war that showed new technologies in war. They had advanced machine guns, trenches, poisonous gas, gas masks, dog fights, etc. But today we are more advanced in some of those areas and some don't even exist in war today. For example, trench warfare is not popular in wars today and machine guns are a lot more advanced. They don't overheat and you are able to control one with just one person rather than 4 to 5 people. Tanks are much faster and stronger today also. So WWI has played a big role in shaping the world the way it is today.
