World War I is considered to be a global conflict because its hostilities involved nations from around the world and occurred on the majority of the world's continents, including most of its major waterways. While the bulk of the fighting took place in Europe, battles on land and sea were fought in and around Africa, near the Americas, and in portions of Asia and the Pacific.
