Trench warfare was only used in WWI because by the time WWII came around the corner the allied powers were higher in technology like tanks and artillery could bob those positions, making themuseless. It was a style of war used almost exclusively in WWI as the outdated tactics of the commanders was rendered useless by the advances in weaponry. The trenches would only hold back the tanks and heavy artillery because tanks at the time could not cross the big gap and the heavy artillery would fall into the trench and either the artillery would explode or rapidly fire (depending on the weapon that fell into the trench)
While some trenching was used in the 19th century to protect troops from artillery, trench warfare saw its zenith in World War I. The elaborate earthworks, while miserable for many, likely saved the lives of many thousands.
Earthworks have been used in warfare back to the time of the Roman Army. It was used extensively in the American Revolution, and in the American Civil War. World War I saw trench warfare on a massive scale.
The Germans used trench warfare first, they built the first trench due to the fact that they didn't want to loose land that they had already captured.:D

Trench warfare was a military tactic used because of the weapons used at the time (the time being 1864-1918). It was called trench warfare because both sides dug trenches and either bombarded the other, assaulted it, or simply waited it out.
The Western Front (in France and Belgium) where both sides were very evenly matched, and the defense proved much stronger than the offense. On other fronts in World War 1, trench warfare was not necessary.
