How did trench warfare develop after Battle of the Marne in 1914?

German general, Erich von Falkenhyn, made his troops / soldiers dig trenches for protection against the Allies (the Allies are the German's enemies), when the Allies soon realized they could not break through their trenches, they dug their own as well. This created "No man's land", which was the middle of both trenches, where it was nearly impossible to survive.
