The very first global conflict to span multiple continents and oceans, World War I kicked off in July 1914 and ended in November 1918. Territory was lost and gained, empires crumbled and millions sacrificed their lives to fight for their countries.

One of the bloodiest battles in the history of humankind was fought out on the hills in Northern France. Verdun was a tactical and symbolical city with great value to France. In 1916, the German army launched a massive attack, accompanied by a tremendous artillery bombardment, upon which the French defenders put their foot down, stating that 'on ne passe pas!', they shall not pass.
