The World War And What Was Behind It is a book written by Louis P. Benezet that provides a detailed analysis of the causes and events that led to the outbreak of World War I. The book covers the political, economic, and social factors that contributed to the tensions between the major European powers in the early 20th century. Benezet also examines the role of imperialism, militarism, nationalism, and alliances in the lead up to the war.The author provides a comprehensive overview of the major events of the war, including the battles, strategies, and tactics employed by the various nations involved. He also discusses the impact of the war on the global economy and society, as well as the political fallout that followed the armistice.Throughout the book, Benezet draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources to support his arguments and provide readers with a nuanced understanding of the complex factors that contributed to the outbreak of World War I. The World War And What Was Behind It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the First World War and the geopolitical landscape of Europe in the early 20th century.Frederick the Great, regretting the fact that he was separated from his land in East Prussia by the county of West Prussia, which was part of Poland, proposed to his old enemy, Maria Theresa of Austria, and to the Empress Catharine II of Russia that they each take a slice of Poland. This was accordingly done, in the year 1772. Poor Poland was unable to resist the three great powers around her, and the other kings of Europe, who had been greedily annexing land wherever they could get it, stood by without a protest.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
