Was world war 1 the battle of the somme?
No, the First World War was not limited to the Battle of the Somme. There were many battles during the First World War, fought on many fronts, like the Western Front (Belgium, France), Eastern Front (Russia, Poland, Serbia, Italy), the Gallipoli Campaign (Turkey), East and West Africa (Cameroon, Namibia, Togo, Tanzinia), The Mesopotamian Campaign (modern day Iraq) and even some actions in China.

What is the town in northeastern France on the Meuse River that was a scene of several battles during World War 1?
The Marne river, The Somme river, or The Meuse river The Somme river is perhaps most famous as a result of the World War I Battle of the Somme (July 1, 1916). The Meuse river saw battles near the fortress of Verdun, where the fighting between the French and the Germans was very fierce especially in early 1916. The great battles which finally stopped the German advance in the Spring Offensive of 1918 were fought around the valley of the Somme in places like Villers Bretonneux, which marked the beginning of the end of the war. The Somme is the best known. The Aisne also was a battle site and also the Oise. As was the Marne against the French in the Autumn of 1914. The Marne river is where the French stopped the German advance on Paris..so you are most likely looking for the Somme.
Does the film 'The Battle of the Somme' provide a realistic picture of what it was like to be a British soldier in the trenches?
'The battle of the Somme' film is a British documentary with supposedly 'real' footage of The Battle that took place in the Somme in 1914. It was made, produced and edited by the government. The film gave a very clear of trench warfare, showing dead and wounded German soldiers. The film was a great success. The film itself in the first six weeks of its release in Britain sold twenty million tickets. Overall, the movie was a complete success, but is there a reason behind this? Did the British see just what the government wanted them to see?

What were the results in the battle of the Somme?
The idea behind the battle of the Somme was for the British to barrage (bombard with bombs and missiles) the German trenches. The British (and probably French) thought all the German soldiers would die and it would be an easy takeover. However the Germans simply went into their burrow like structures underground and mostly survived. The British simply walked over no mans land anticipating an easy capture and were mowed down by machine gun fire. 20000 British soldiers died in the first day.

Were tanks used in the battle of the somme?
Yes the battle of the somme was where tanks 1st took the stage in a offcial combat role. The british had two types of tank that day, the mk2(female) And the mk4(male) The female had no guns and had the aim of getting troops across no mans land and over the ruff terrain to the german frontlines. The male mk4 had 2 mounted vickers and one small 65mm cannon, similar role but also took a few people with them if you get my drift lol. There were iin tootal 7 tanks that day as it was only a combat test the 1st day of the somme. Throughout the war, we produced more mk4's as they faird pretty well. Not long after the somme the germans started experimenting with tanks also.....thus the battle tank was born.
