Trench warfare was when the soldiers would sit in large dug out holes and pop their heads up to shoot at the enemies. They did this because the flat land they were fighting on held no place to hide or conduct surprise attack. They would basically just be in these trenches trying to kill their enemies. It was difficult to gain any land and move while they were fighting because as soon as you got out of the trench you were an easy target. The armies would lose the majority of their soldiers during these fights. It was difficult because they were in these trenches for days on end and they would often get flooded with water which would get into their shoes and cause oozing sores. They didn't really have any supplies on the way either They had not much food or fresh clothes, (not even underwear!) and it was sort of like waiting in line to get shot.

Yes, World War II did involve trench warfare, but it was not as prevalent as it was in World War I. Trenches were still used in some battles, but the war also saw the use of new tactics and technologies that reduced the reliance on trench warfare.

Trench warfare was rarely used on the eastern front during World War I because the terrain was more open and less suitable for digging extensive trench systems. The vast distances and fluid nature of the fighting on the eastern front also made it difficult to establish static trench lines.
