Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The maps we know today were drawn in blood between 1914 and 1918. This book examines how the Great War didn't merely end with armistice-it destroyed four empires and created the nation-states that would define the twentieth century. The Habsburg, Ottoman, Russian, and German empires collapsed under the weight of industrial warfare, leaving a vacuum that nationalism and self-determination rushed to fill. Readers will trace how wartime alliances shifted into postwar animosities, how colonial troops fought for empires that would soon abandon them, and how the Treaty of Versailles planted the seeds of conflict for generations. This is not a battle-by-battle account but a study of power's disintegration and the fragile order that rose from the rubble. The reshaping of global order after 1918 remains the foundation of our current geopolitical landscape, from the Middle East's borders to Europe's unresolved tensions. Artikel-Nr. 9783565589043
