Declaration of War (July 28, 1914): Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, leading to a cascade of declarations involving alliances like the Triple Entente (France, Russia, and the United Kingdom) and the Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary, and later the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria).
Western Front (1914-1918): Trench warfare, battles like the Battle of the Somme (1916), and the Battle of Verdun (1916) characterized this front.
Eastern Front (1914-1917): Major battles occurred between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Russia. The Russian Revolution in 1917 led to Russia's withdrawal.
Italian Front (1915-1918): Italy joined the Entente and fought against Austria-Hungary in the mountainous regions.
Gallipoli Campaign (1915): Allied forces attempted to open a supply route to Russia through the Dardanelles but failed.
Middle Eastern Theater (1914-1918): The Allies fought against the Ottoman Empire, with T.E. Lawrence ("Lawrence of Arabia") playing a prominent role.

The Roaring Twenties, also known as the Jazz Age, was a dynamic and transformative period in American and global history. It spanned from approximately 1920 to 1929 and was characterized by significant cultural, social, and economic changes. Here's a detailed overview of this remarkable decade:
Economic Prosperity: The 1920s witnessed unprecedented economic growth in the United States. The end of World War I brought about a shift from wartime production to consumer goods, leading to a booming economy. The introduction of assembly-line manufacturing techniques by companies like Ford made products more affordable, contributing to increased consumer spending.
Technological Advancements: The decade saw remarkable technological innovations, including the widespread adoption of electricity, the telephone, and the automobile. The automobile, in particular, revolutionized transportation and led to the development of suburban areas.
Prohibition: One of the most iconic features of the 1920s was Prohibition, which banned the sale, production, and transportation of alcoholic beverages. This led to the rise of speakeasies (illegal bars) and organized crime, with figures like Al Capone becoming infamous during this era.
Cultural Revolution: The Roaring Twenties was a time of cultural renaissance. Jazz music, with legends like Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington, became immensely popular, and the era is often associated with the "Jazz Age." Dance crazes like the Charleston swept the nation, and the era saw a shift towards more liberal attitudes in areas like fashion and behavior.
