World War I: History Videos

This series tells the story of World War I, the conflict that reshaped the modern world. You will learn how empires and alliances set the stage for war, and how one assassination pulled nearly all of Europe into the fight. You will follow the war across many fronts and see how new technology made it deadlier than any war before it. You will also learn why the United States joined and how the peace treaties that ended the war planted the seeds of future conflicts. The last few videos explain how the war redrew the map of the Middle East, which still affects world events today.
