Nice Little Quotes
“Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together.”
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Yet human intelligence has another force, too: the sense of urgency that gives human smarts their drive. Perhaps our intelligence is not just ended by our mortality; to a great degree, it is our mortality.
-Adam Gopnik

Fighting for peace, is like fucking for chastity
-Stephen King

Being as trentica is Quite ahead in technology (our ww1 era stuff was circa 1732).And we are also in a different timeline to yours where there was no dark ages and every group of people were in civilised cities and countries tech advanced further. This means that we had semi futuristic stuff during ww1 below is a picture of us in action on a campaign in the holy roman empire controlled Egypt.

As evidence suggests, we weren't very strong technologically. The dark ages more or less endured until the Napoleonic invasion of Egypt. Picture from that.

Our nation's army in 1914 was heavily modeled on the British Army, with everything from helmets to weapons being essentially copies of their existing equipment. We did not participate in the First World War, however.

Hmm... In the High Tatras, the Great War only ended about two decades ago, with the present being an alternate mid-to-late 1930s. With that being said, our army was (and still is) very much modeled after that of Prussia, using mostly German uniforms and equipment.

Arthurista as a semi-autonomous British colony in 1914 contributed a division which fought at Gallipoli and the Western Front, as well as a cavalry brigade which fought with Allenby and Lawrence of Arabia on the Sinai-Palestine front. It was commanded by Arthuristan officers and pioneered important tactics in armoured and aerial warfare. Four VCs were won by Arthuritan troops during the war.

In 1914, the Fatatatutian Army was just starting up. We had only just begun to realize that we needed a Western-style Army to defend against potential attacks by modern armies. The fledgling Takeapenny Arsenal had recently developed the R-1 bolt-action rifle and the first regiments were equiped with it. Later, it was mostly replaced by a lighter carbine version (so Fatatatutti has a long Light Infantry tradition).

In the decade after 1914, developments abroad underlined the importance of armoured warfare and aviation, both of which changed our fighting forces immensely.
