Above shows the fearless tanks used in World War One. Great Brittain was the first country to use the tanks like this created by Lancelot de Mole. Mole was an Australia inventor and engineer that made serveral approaches to the British authorities about his invention until they finally decided to use his tank design in the Battle of Flers. The Battle of Flers lasted from 15 to 22 September, 1916. This was the first time a tank was used in battle.
Other countries caught on to this method of defense decided to build their own. France and Germany also started building tanks like Great Brittain's tanks. Even to this day, we use modernized tanks to help us at war. These vehicles are easy on rocky terrain and can be very powerful when needed. The first tanks were very slow and unreliable. Most would only go up to 4 miles per hour! Speed wasn't really what they were used for though. Tanks were used by the British to dominate trenches where other vehicles couldn't go.
Though France and Germany caught on quickly on how to make these machines, Germany only produced about 20 in the entire war. Between France and Brittain, they produced 6,506 tanks by the end of the war! Stunningly though, by the end of the war, Brittain only had 20 tanks left. When the Battle of Flers started, Brittain had sent in 49 new tanks. They increased the mobility on the Western Front
