Short shrift was given to the 'Map Makers' in the very beginning.those men assigned (obviously with the input of the leaders), who contributed greatly to future disasters in the Balkans, Yugoslavia and even in the Rhineland area of Germany where I spent three years in the military over fifty years ago and witnessed in many extensive travels, the travails resulting from the lack of foresight of said leaders who set Germany up for the arrival of Adolf Hitler by the monstrosity of their dismantling of a once proud nation led astray by that very same family of Royalty that led such diverse countries as England and Russia.

In spite of the '10' rating which I have given, there are points of interest that I would have wished more emphasis.

The three most influential World leaders were Clemanceau of France, Lloyd-George of the English and the ill-fated President of the U.S. The importance of this 'virtual documentary' is a factual basis of the events over a year, with excellent portrayals of the leaders of the 'winning' side in the First World War, although I use the conclusion that there were any winners rather loosely as the film so accurately portrays.
