There was a large number of allies on each side of the conflict, and their geographical location and that of their imperial provinces meant that parts of the war were fought all overEurope , and in other places such asNorth Africa and theMiddle East . Abattle is a smaller conflict between two military enemies that often makes up part of a war. This is a list (though not exhaustive) of the battles of world war one, in chronological order.
