The British and French both developed tanks during WWI. Although the two countries were allies, they did not know about each other's tank programmes for over a year, until March 1916. The British first used tanks in September 1916, and the French first used theirs in April 1917. The Germans had not made serious efforts to create armoured vehicles, but began to do so after the British use of tanks in 1916. Germany produced only 20 of her own tanks, and used a larger number of captured British tanks.
The USA entered the War without any tanks, and used both British heavy and French light tanks during 1918
As the War progressed, different types of tank were developed. Britain produced heavy and medium tanks, while France concentrated more on small, light vehicles. Production figures for WWI (approximate): Great Britain 2,600; France 4,000; Germany 20.
Russia and Italy also carried out limited experiments. Russia's were abandoned, and Italy produced two prototypes before the War ended. Plans for the USA to build tanks for herself and the Allies were not successful, and none was completed in time to see action.
The British in WW1. A little known fact is that Henry Ford designed and built tanks.

yes,all ww1 tanks had guns
Tanks were in development after WW1, mostly by Germany.

because the trench was thin and the tracks on the tanks were long the tanks simply rolled over them
