It was static because both sides were evenly matched, neither had the resources to make a prolonged offensive, and so the war become a war of attrition, and the Allies one due to the blockade imposed on Germany, thus they cracked before the Allies did. (It was only static on the Western Fronts, i.e. France/Belgium and Northern Italy etc.)
