Ernest Swinton proposed the idea of the armored tank in 1915 to withstand bullets on the battlefield, helping the Allies win the war. Chlorine gas was a deadly substance used by the Germans in 1915 that would burn soldiers and lead to a slow death. Antiaircraft weapons fired at planes from the ground up to a range of 3,000 yards. As new weapons were developed and countries allied, the economy declined due to the increasing costs of the weapons and replacing destroyed ships and armies.

Antiaircraft This weapon was used against airplanes. These weapons would destroy planes from ground They could fire at a range of 3,000 yards. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_kIWY2DV0KnE/SXu8o-kZeMI/AAAAAAAACNU/4jGxXj0nypI/s400/Early+anti-aircraft+gun+2.jpg
Economical Effect As the war progressed the economy got worse, because each time the countries were allying with other countries they were making more deadly weapons, so this meant they were using more money to make more weapons. As the countries fought they were destroying other countries boats and army so they needed money to replace all the ones that they destroyed. While in war the economy was worsening throughout the world, all because of the new technological inventions. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LZJhSvE4Isg/S6-mrIJFEtI/AAAAAAAAAPU/k0f1xua_fuE/s1600/Economic+imperialism+of+world+war+one.jpg
