First off, my apologies if there already is a thread on this topic.
In the 100th anniversary of the start of the First World War, many projects are running dedicated to visualize the war as it happened by months, weeks or even days. Social media is used to cover these events whether it is through Twitter, Facebook or Instagram. Now, in this ocean of vast projects based on WW1, there is a series which stands out in presentation: The Great War. This video series presents the war week by week with amazing visual presentation of the frontlines, movement and battles during the First World War.
This series started back in July 2014 and will continue until 11th November 2018 with the First Armistice.'The Great War' shows you the history of the First World War in the four years from 1914 to 1918, exactly 100 years ago. Our host Indy takes you back week by week and shows you what was going on in the past. Learn more about the Allies and the Central Powers, archdukes, emperors, Winston Churchill, Franz Ferdinand, Wilhelm II, soldiers, battles and of the life aside the battlefield. Subscribe to our channel to watch a new video every Thursday!
The reason why I did not post this The History Videos Thread is because this is an ongoing series and I think it should have it's own thread for discussion.
