World War I marked a significant shift to total war, wherein entire societies mobilized for the war effort. Governments redirected resources, including manpower and finances, towards military goals, necessitating the involvement of women in various roles. Propaganda became a vital tool, shaping public perception and garnering support for military initiatives. The war drained Germany's resources, leading to its eventual collapse. The Allies implemented economic warfare strategies, such as blockades, to weaken adversaries. This total war approach was pivotal in shaping the outcome of WWI.
