How did they build the trenches in ww1?
They used shovels and picks to dig out the trenches.
What were two causes of the stalemate in world war 1?
One cause was trench warfare. Both opponents would line up in trenches and if you came over your trench walls you would be gunned down, so there was not really much advancement. Another stalemate would be weapons. Back in WW1 we did not have modern weapons like we do today. For example no planes were used for attacks in WW1 mainly for scouting territory.
Who did sentry duty in World War 1 in the British Trenches?

What is a reserve trench?
Reserve trenches were used as supplies for the trenches out the front. In world war one, they had come up with a technique of hiding in trenches before they fight. To do this properly, they had made them zig-zags. The trenches on the front line were where the soldiers would fight from. Reserve trenches were used in case these people had anything happen to them and they needed to use more trenches and more men. Throughout the war, the conditions of the front line trenches became worse as the communication and reserve trenches improved. I hope that helped :)

What is a trench in World War 1?
A reserve tranch was one of three main trenches, all connected up by communication trenches. The reserve trenches were at the back and, from the name, were used as reserves. The next trenches were support trenches, to support the fighting. Then you had the Front trenches, right next to No Man's Land. Hope this helped :D

WW1 they did next to nothing. They had weak armor, were easy to stop, and since they were new no one came up with anystrategic designs using them. but they were used to push forward a bit in the trenches since WW1 was a all trench warfare anyone who walked forward was mowed down and even weak armored tanks did better then a guy in a cloth shirt
