Rationing sometimes decided the outcome of major battles, with the countries affected running out of supplies and being forced to concede. It was used by both sides but more aggressively by Germany and the Central Powers.

The rationing during World War 1 had a major effect on the British people. They were forced to eat less, grow their own foods and raise their own animals for food. Clothing, gasoline and even fruits were rationed.
