5. 1. The fellows on airplanes used to say goodbye to their enemies at first. Those were very small planes used only as a reconaissance. Afterwards, some bastard attached a machine gun to the plane, and they were not friends anymore. 2. Due to that War, Germany invented the Panzer (Tank) and the British invented the Jeep. 3. The Krupp Dinasty became the wealthiest people on the planet. They were selling weapons to any country, including the allies, and by the way, they were german. 4. America became a major world superpower with that war, a peer of the biggest of Europe. 5. Just after WW1 finished, Apocalypse appeared: the infamous Spanish Influenza. This epidemic killed more people and soldiers than all the people killed with the war. 6. The first encounter with chemical warfare. Germans used to throw Sarin and or Chloride gas to their enemies, blinding them and sending them to the other world with the worst excruciating pains you can imagine. 7. The Germans stopped using the ridiculous spikes on their helmets, but the helmet (without the spikes) was adopted by everyone. 8. The american soldiers were called doughboys. 9. France had their vengeance against the Germans, because previously some years before Prussia (that was the name of Germany on that time) beat the shit out of them in 1870. And the same person, Krupp, gave the arms in that war. See ya, buddy...
