Answer:

World War I, also known as the Great War, started in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. His assassination created a domino affect into a war across Europe that lasted until 1918. During the conflict, the Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire) fought against the Allied Powers (Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy, Romania, Japan and the United States). The new (at the time) military technologies and the horror that was of trench warfare, the Great War earned its title as it saw unrivaled levels of carnage and destruction. By the time the war was over and the Allied Powers had claimed their victory, and more than 16 million soldiers and civilians were killed. World War I was a fast period of an advancement in technology (mainly war focused) and a time of death. Many stories could be told, from very different perspectives. Here are some different perspectives of someone who participated in the war and died in the war. Fredrick Bishop was an Australian messenger and Second Boer War veteran. Enlisted on the 21st of June 1915. His Unit was the 32nd Infantry Battalion and he was killed in action, Hamel Sector, Somme, France, 23 June 1918, at the age of 53 years. He had served for his country twice, and when serving WWl he was a runner, a messenger who would run through and behind enemy lines to deliver messages. Frederick Bishop died of injuries after running back into the battle after receiving news that troops had not received the message to pull back from the battle due to an incoming bombardment from dreadnoughts onto the battlefield. Fredrick Bishop successfully delivered the message to troops on the battlefield that would soon be bombarded and held an Ottoman Fort giving the troops enough time to retreat unharmed as the enemies would be too distracted by the attack on their Headquarters.

HEADS UP!!! DO NOT USE THE ANSWER FROM THE OTHER ANSWER!!! IT WAS COPY AND PASTED FROM WIKIPEDIA!!!

Answer:

I am using the topic World War l (My answer is being done all by hand and in my own work.)

Step-by-step explanation:

World War I, also known as the Great War, began in 1914 after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. His murder catapulted into a war across Europe that lasted until 1918. During the conflict, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire (the Central Powers) fought against Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy, Romania, Japan and the United States (the Allied Powers). Thanks to new military technologies and the horrors of trench warfare, World War I saw unprecedented levels of carnage and destruction. By the time the war was over and the Allied Powers claimed victory, more than 16 million people—soldiers and civilians alike—were dead. World War I was a period of an advancement in technology and a time of death, many stories could be told, from all different perspectives. The first World War taught us many things, technological wise and where peoples hearts are. I want to focus on a different perspective of someone who participated in the war and gave his life doing so.

Fredrick Bishop, also know as the Pride of Australia, Fredrick Bishop was an Australian messenger and Second Boer War veteran. He Enlisted on the 21st of June 1915, Perth, Western Australia. His Unit was the 32nd Infantry Battalion and he was killed in action, Hamel Sector, Somme, France, 23 June 1918, at the age of 53 years. He had served for his country twice, and when serving WWl he was a runner, a messenger who would run through and behind enemy lines to deliver messages. Frederick Bishop died of injuries after running back into the battle after receiving news that troops had not received the message to pull back from the battle due to an incoming bombardment from dreadnoughts onto the battlefield. Fredrick Bishop successfully delivered the message to troops on the battlefield that would soon be bombarded and held an Ottoman Fort (enemy fortress) giving the troops enough time to retreat unharmed as the enemies would be too distracted by the attack on their Headquarters.
