WW1 UK Propaganda Collection: The UK entered WW1 in 1914 to defend Belgium and fight Germany. It fought major battles on the Western Front and used its navy to blockade Germany. At home, conscription and wartime industry transformed society, with women taking new roles. Britain won in 1918 but suffered heavy losses and major economic strain. (ChatGPT)
