Answer:
What made WWI so different was the long term impact of the Industrial Revolution, with its social and political changes. This war was the first global war of the industrialized age.
Explanation:
The war was fought with all heart of patriotism and belief of social hierarchy, these believes were later destroy by the war, and no one seems to understand nowadays. Known as the people's war, it was fueled by the idea and sense of national identity, by the middle of the war countries involved called it "Total war".
The organization of entire societies for war in a social, economic and spiritual manner. Almost everyone believed that victory for their country was worth the cost and casualties of war.
de Gaulle wrote a book in the early 30's about mobile warfare. The germans read it and used it for blitzkrieg. His ideas were not popular with the higher ups, but during the battle of France he was given one French Armored Division, and he was able to attack and drive back the Germans.
Being also a politician, he was asked to join the new French Government. After the surrender, de Gaulle flew to Britain with one small suitcase and the honor of France. From there he organized the Free French. He managed to tick off just about everyone at one time or another as he lobbied for France. de Gualle was a conservative, while most of the French resistance and Free French were socialists.
After the war, the French created the fourth republic, with all the problems of the third. de Gualle went into retirement, but also started organizing his own party, the Gaulists. In the 50's the problems with Algerian independence caused a constitutional crisis. de Gaul led the effort for a new constitution with a strong presidency, and served as the first president of the 5th republic.
So de Gaulle is a father of his country, like George Washington. Except nobody wanted to run up to George and kick him in the shins, but most everyone wanted to do that to de Gaulle at one time or other.
