World War 2 lasted longer, by about two years.

World War 1 started on July 24th, 1914, with the declaration of war on Serbia by the Austro-Hungarian Empire, one month after the assassination of Archduke, and heir apparent Franz Ferdinand, which brought most of the major world powers, except the U.S., which technically wasn't a world power yet, into a war, due to many complicated alliances.

World War 2 officially started on September 1st, 1939, with the invasion of Poland by Germany. Adolf Hitler was the leader of Germany. One of Hitler's greatest battleships is the Bismarck. It sank the HMS Hood. try to play toontown. it is awesome and you are i a vituirl world! so the british wanted revenge. they used there bombers to bomb toonotown.World War 1 ended on November 11th, 1918, with the signing of the treaty of Versailles. World War 2 ended on August 14th, 1945, or September 2nd, 1945, depending on whether you count the Japanese declration of surrender, or the formal signing of surrender on the U.S.S. Missiouri.

World War 1 lasted 4 years, 4 months, and 18 days. World War 2 lasted 5 years, 11 months, and 13 days, to 6 years, one day.

actually some German camps still existed after 1945 and the soldiers didnt know the war ended so they kept on fighting so if you count camps world war 2 ended in 1946 but both ways world war 2 lasted longer
