Trench warfare

Trench warfare 
Trench warfare is about fighting on land. It is a good way because no aircraft can take
fire at the people in the trenches. It is helpful to cover the ground and push the
enemy back.


Trench warfare is where there are two sides in the middle of no man's land,
no man's land is called that because none of the two sides own it.
In the nights the rats would get in the old cans and rattle them
in which it would give away the position spot. 


There were about  2,490 kilometers of trench lines dug during World War I.
Most of the trenches were about 1-2 meters deep and 3 meters long.
The trenches were long and narrow. 


With people fighting in such close places in the trenches, usually, in unsanitary
conditions, infectious diseases such as dysentery, cholera and typhoid fever were
common and spread rapidly.


In conclusion, trenches were horrible, disgusting, and full of rats.
But were sometimes quite useful for cover and winning the war.
