It features hundreds of eyewitness accounts from frontline soldiers, generals, statesmen, children and women from all sides in the conflict. The First World War shaped the twentieth century. It sparked the Russian Revolution and launched America as a world power. The fault-line from its failed peace settlement led to a second terrible world war barely twenty years later. We live with its unresolved consequences; in the Middle East, the Balkans and Ireland. **Part 8: Revolution** This episode examines how governments, worried about unrest at home, set about fomenting revolution among the enemy. Britain sponsored the Arab revolt through Lawrence of Arabia, while Germany backed Irish independence and helped Lenin get back to Russia in 1917. ==See Also== {{http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00jz8g2|BBC Site}} ==Trailer== ,,Full Version Available Upon Request,, {{ youtube> }} ==Full Version== \\ \\ ,,The availability of this link might be uncertain!,,\\ ,,Full version is available upon request.,, {{ youtube>UHD2wR2v-O8 }} \\ \\ \\ {{tag>HD History Military WWI Europe BBC SER BBC_-_The_First_World_War_(2003) FF 2003 Ar04/14 Name}}
