Kiev. 1914 Stamp paper. Poster format: 53 x 69 cm. Traces of folds ( 1\8).
The first world war (July 28, 1914-November 11, 1918) was one of the most widespread wars in the history of mankind. The formal reason for the war was the events in Sarajevo, where on June 28, 1914, a nineteen-year-old Bosnian Serb, Gavrilo Princip, who was part of a group of terrorists, carried out an attempt that killed the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and his morganatic wife, Sofia Hotek.
The countries participating in the First world war were divided into two opposing camps:
Central powers: German, Austro-Hungarian, Ottoman, and Bulgarian empires;
Entente: Russian Empire, British Empire, French Republic.
In total, more than 70 million people were mobilized in the armies of the warring countries during the war, including 60 million in Europe, of which 9 to 10 million died. The number of civilian casualties, according to various estimates, is in the range of 7 to 12 million people, of which about 1 million died as a result of the fighting; about 55 million people were injured. The war served as the prologue and detonator of a number of major revolutions, including the February and October 1917 revolutions in Russia, and the November 1918 revolutions in Germany. As a result of the war, four empires ceased to exist: the Russian, Austro-Hungarian, Ottoman, and German empires.
