5. how many people were injured
6. how many country fight in the world war 1

why is today special? because its been 100 years when the world war 1 started at 1914 and today its 2014. More than 18500 kiwis died and over 40,000 men and women were injured. A lot of them had to use a  walking stick when the war ended because of their injuries.

2 facts: More than 65 million men from 30 countries fought in WWI. Nearly 10 million died. The Allies (The Entente Powers) lost about 6 million soldiers. The Central Powers lost about 4 million. Germans were the first to use flamethrowers in WWI. Their flamethrowers could fire jets of flame as far as 130 feet (40 m).

I thought that more kiwi died then get injured i think that they were the best kiwis.
