The declaration of war in 1914 was met with excitement as young men and woman went to war.The young
men's and woman's were going to war not knowing that it was going to be dangerous and a really hard adventure.Here is how the war started in 1914 on the 28 of June a Serbian named Gavrilo Princip was short and killed.When he got killed a lot of people were very angry.After time it was bigger and bigger so Britain declared war.
There were so many country's involved in the war.Over 30,000 New Zealanders went to war.As they went off to war they said there good byes to there families .Most of the people from New Zealand and Australia that went to war were only young.When the war was finished in 1918 they sailed back home to there familiars.The war was so bad over 16,000 people died in the people and only 40,000 people made it home.
What I have learned is we should not be sad but be happy and proud of the brave people that went to fight for there country,us and also there family's too but LEST WE FORGET.
