Sudden Development Of Motion Sickness

(1914)

On the Western Front, the Germans wanted a quick war, a key to his victory, following the provisions of the Schlieffen plan, based on the calculation that the Russian army would need several weeks to put in front of their power. The Germans wanted launch a swift attack against France and then fell on a fulminant Russia, thus securing the eastern front.

The Germans invaded Belgium on August 4 and released on France, where Marshal Joffre conducts a desperate counterattack that failed to stem the German advance on the Marne in September 1914. In this battle the French get the Germans to withdraw from the territory they had conquered.

Since that time both armies were established on solid defensive lines. Thus began in the west trench warfare, which replaced the initial warfare. For other side on the eastern front the Russians invaded East Prussia, after that first step. Germans, after the victory at Tannenberg imposed. And thus halting the progress achieved. Given these facts, the "blitz" designed by Germany failed, and the war takes longer than what the country could expect, realizing he would win the side that most were able to resist.
