The Western Front was a key theater of World War I, primarily located in France and Belgium, where the Allies faced off against the Central Powers, particularly Germany. The front was characterized by extensive trench systems that stretched for hundreds of miles. The purpose of these trenches was to provide soldiers with protection from enemy fire, create a defensive position, and facilitate the movement of troops and supplies while minimizing casualties in the brutal stalemate of trench warfare.
