Peer Assessment Question and Expert Answer

Question In what ways did warfare change in the 20th century?

Expert Teacher Answer

There were many wars in the 20th century including 2 major World Wars. Initially technology forced soldiers to fight in trenches and there was only a small chance of civilians in Britain being attacked. Soldiers had the new weapons of machine guns and gas bombs and towards the end of the war planes and tanks were being used for the first time. By World War Two- technology had progressed to such an extent that Hitler was able to use Blitzkrieg effectively - using tanks and planes. Indeed the plane became a very important weapon as it enabled both Britain and Germany to bomb innocent civilians in Britain and Germany. The devastation caused by the Blitz in Britain and by the bombing of Dresden caused untold damage to thousands of citizens. The introduction of the Atomic Bomb during World War Two was to change the face of war totally. America dropped 2 of the most powerful bombs ever created on Hiroshima and Nagasaki - completely destroying these 2 cities and causing radioactive problems for years to come. The development of these bombs infuriated the Russians who immediately after WW2, began to seize control of Eastern Europe - notably through the Berlin Blockade and then the creation of the Berlin Wall. Russia decided that the only way to protect herself was to take control of the countries around her. A Cold War developed - meaning taht no actual fighting took place - for fear of nuclear devastation. Russia and America could have caused millions of deaths but incidents such as the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Vietnam War brought the politicians to their senses and during the 1970s both countries agreed a truce. By the end of the 1990s Communism was almost dead.
