Best Answer

the first World War left about 9 million dead and 8 million disabled. France is in proportion, the hardest hit country with 1.4 million dead, (10 % of the active male population). For instance 50% of the peasants or farmers are dead.
36000 monuments are built after the war in every French town or village by the survivors, to honor the dead.It was a sad war for the French.
