  • All Quiet On The Western Front Effect Of War

    War was always known to improve society, but it has actually been a burden in the world that has caused so much damage. I believe that the people should have a world without war so their can be more money for the people, and the death rate will decrease. This world should be War-Free because war causes violence and it is arbitrary. Even though, the novel, All Quiet On The Western Front, by Erich Maria Remarque, illustrates events from World War I, it still proves that war can be a dangerous place that leads to negative effects. War is a menacing place which causes so much violence that it has to be removed.

    This book changed a little bit that I knew about WWI because it went in depth into somebody’s life. Even though I had seen movies on it, it is a different experience for when you read it. When we had our discussions it was very cool to see what others thought and our opinions and something we didn’t like or did like. The presentations in the beginning were pretty cool, I already knew some of the stuff like the weapons and vehicles but it’s nice to see and look back on them.
