Germany had planned to crush the Western resistance swiftly and then to go to the aid of the weakened Austro-Hungarian forces, fighting on the Eastern front against the Russians.

However, on its route to the capital of France, Paris, the German advance was halted at the Marne river. There it was engaged in a trench war* that lasted all of four years.
