Compare and contrast of different warfare and the style of world war 1 and world war2?

They are 2 very large & far reaching conflicts of the 20th century. WW2 is by far the larger. Technology has a great acceleration in both instances. Civillian involvement in WW2 is massive & in WW1 was minimal. Germany is seen as the villan in both instances & the US was decisive in both. In WW1 Russia is heavily defeated & in WW2 the USSR has a mighty struggle with the German invasion forces. Submarines (U boats) sink many merchant ships in both conflicts, causing great hardship to Britain. France has a massive role in WW1 but is knocked out of WW2 in a few short weeks. Japan is on the side of the Allies in WW1 and the Axis in WW2, the same applies to Italy. South America is largely unaffected by both WW1 & WW2. Militarily WW2 is far more mobile, both the Tank & the Aircraft, products of WW1 are redesigned out of all recognition in a short space of time in WW2. WW1 features Poison Gas, WW2 does not. Static trench warfare does not exist in WW2.


Who involve in WW2?

A good seventy countries were involved in WW2, although a lot of these countries didn't come in until the middle of or towards the end of WW2. But France, Britain, Russia, Japan, Poland, Italy, and of course, Germany were involved in WW2 from the beginning to the end.
