Why was World War 1 more deadlier than ww2?
WW1 used trench warfare. Causing a dead zone. where if anyone popped out of their trench they would most likely died. It cause many stalemate conflicts. Also, planes, tanks, and gas (even gatling gun) were new styles of fighting brought out by this war. So no tatics were thought of during this time.
