How does biology affect the outcomes of war?
Biology plays a major role in war, especially in WWI. When soldiers are invading foreign areas they bring new diseases with them that the natives don't have an immunity to because the new disease are not native to their country. But that's a double edged sword because the invaders don't have any natural immunities to the native's diseases. In WWI more people died from illnesses and disease like the Spanish influenza. Another example is soldiers no matter which country they fought with developed PTSD or Shell shock. -James Raymond
Biology affected the outcome of the war through mustard gas and other types of chemical warfare. About 91,000 people died instantly and 1,250,000 died over time. Another way biology effected WWI was when the soldiers moved to other countries like France. They did not have immunity to the diseases there they got sick and died. However it goes both ways, the new comers brought diseases and got the locals sick. -Adam Shapiro
