The first world war came at a time before antibiotics, a time when the Spanish Flu was raging and a time when relatively simple and curable diseases and injuries could kill. That’s why so many of those that died in the First World War died from diseases and infections, as opposed to guns and bombs. It was also one of the first wars to draw civilians into the action. Not only were many civilians conscripted to fight in the war, but many more were the target of emery fire and bomb attacks, with a total of 7 million civilians dying. 11 million soldiers also lost their lives, while the total number of injured personnel was said to be over 23 million. There are a few websites reporting that the figure is around 30 million to 40 million and even higher, but these seems to stem from a confusion with regards to the wounded soldiers and civilians.
