Best Answer

Many soldiers killed on the Western Front of WWI because of the introduction of chemical gas and tank warfare. This happened due to the initial stalemate that had been caused by trench warfare.

Why did Australia go to the western front?

Are you referring to the west of the country or the Western Front as in the First World War? If you are referring to the Western Front, then it is because so many young Australian soldiers lost their lives in battles there. Battles such as Fromelles, Pozieres, Bullecourt, Messines, Ypres and so on resulted in the deaths of many, which when you consider Australia had a relatively small population had a profound impact on the national mindset.
