Punisher War
World War 1
World war is also known as The great War.On the 28 June 1914, Gavrilo Princip, a Bosnian Serb student, killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, in Sarajevo. Princip was a member of Young Bosnia, a group whose aims included the unification of the South Slavs and independence from Austria-Hungary. The assassination in Sarajevo set into motion a series of fast-moving events that eventually escalated into full-scale war. Austria-Hungary demanded action by Serbia to punish those responsible, and when Austria-Hungary deemed Serbia had not complied, declared war. Major European powers were at war within weeks because of overlapping agreements for collective defense and the complex nature of international alliances.
The casualties were:
Military dead:
5,525,000
Military wounded: 12,831,500
Military missing: 4,121,000[1]
Military dead:
4,386,000
Military wounded: 8,388,000
Military missing: 3,629,000
lthough the conflict in India cannot be explicitly said to have been a part of the First World War, it can certainly be said to have been significant in terms of the wider strategic context. The British attempt to subjugate the tribal leaders who had rebelled against their British overlords drew away much needed troops from other theaters, in particular, of course, the Western Front, where the real decisive victory would be made.
The reason why some Indian and Afghani tribes rose up simply came down to years of discontent which erupted, probably not coincidentally, during the First World War. It is likely that the tribal leaders were aware that Britain would not be able to field the required men, in terms of either number or quality. They underestimated, however, the strategic importance placed on India by the British; despite being located far away from the epicenter of the conflict, it provided a bounty of men for the fronts. Its produce was also needed for the British war effort and many trade routes running to other profitable areas of the Empire ran through India. Therefore, although the British were not able to send the men that they wanted, they were able to send enough to resist the revolt of the tribesmen through a gradual but effective counter-guerilla war. The fighting continued into 1919 and in some areas lasted even longer.
World War I is a retronym for "The Great War" (a title previously used to refer to the Napoleonic Wars). It was also known as the 1914-18 War or 14-18 War, or sometimes "the war to end all wars" until World War II. "The Kaiser (or Kaiser's) War", "War of the Nations" and "War in Europe" were commonly employed as descriptions during the war itself and in the 1920s. In France and Belgium it was also sometimes referred to as La Guerre du Droit ('the War for Justice') or La Guerre Pour la Civilisation / de Oorlog tot de Beschaving ("the War to Preserve Civilization"), especially on medals and commemorative monuments. The term used by official histories of the war in Britain and Canada is First World War, while American histories generally use the term World War I. In Italy it is often referred to as "La Guerra del '15 - '18" ("The 1915 - 1918 War"), and more seldom as "The Fourth War of Independence", following the other three conflicts waged against the Austrian Empire in the 19th century.

Capital Punishment and Its Methods of Execution
Capital Punishment or generally known as death sentence is awarded to criminals who have been proven guilty of severe crimes like serial killings, murders, rape etc. Any crime that ultimately results with a death sentence is called a capital offence or capital crime.
The practice of giving capital punishment to the criminals through the judiciaries is highly controversial. The concerns that exist in giving a death sentence are mainly human rights and economic efficiency.
Death penalty, in the form of punishment, has existed in the history since quite a long time. The main difference is that the methods that were used to execute the criminals were really harsh. The methods that were used in the past included drowning, burning and beheading in public; but currently, these have undergone vast change.
The common methods of execution that are used currently are as follows:
• Hanging: In this method of execution, the victim is hung from the gallows, by his neck till death. One of the nations that follow this mode of capital punishment for criminals is India .
• Execution by Electrocution: The convict is made to sit down on a chair through which high voltage electric shock is delivered. This chair is also called as an electric chair. This method is used in the U.S.
• Execution by Firing Squad: This method of execution is mostly used for war traitors or criminals. In this kind of execution, the victim has to stand near a wall. A commander in chief then orders a group of soldiers to fire simultaneously at the convict.
• Execution by Lethal Injection: A dosage of fatal or lethal drugs is injected into the convict. In this method, the death is almost immediate.
Many people who oppose capital punishment believe that, as the judiciary system or the justice system is itself not free of faults, it creates the chances of execution of an innocent person. People who oppose this mode of punishment also believe that if a person is executed for a crime, not only is it atrocious and immoral, it makes us no less different then the criminals.
No matter how divided the people may be in their thoughts regarding Capital punishment, it has existed in the society and supposedly it will continue to exist in the near future too.
