Someone asked about the book, it's The March to the Marne: The French Army 1871-1914, which is one of the best books about militaries as institutions ever written.

if one were to split Western and Eastern Ukraine into two separate countries as an acknowledgement of their fundamental differences of opinion, and I'm not saying this is a good idea, what would you even call those two?

the West becomes Galicia and the East gets to keep being called Ukraine?

Galicia and Malorussia, historically.

sorry, I don’t get it. are you trying to draw some analogy to the Ukraine war?

even if not and this is just about the lack of heavy artillery in ww1 France, I don’t see anything about how this was a catastrophic mistake for them

the west was counting on ukraine's counter offensive to have broken through and reach the sea of azov by now and forcing the russians to start signing surrender papers

and well, they gambled and lost

also the obvious solution to the two Ukraines naming problem is like what they did with Pokemon : Red and Blue. And then you have some of the Ukremons only available in one region and some others only in the other.

the parallel being drawn to the Ukraine war is with wrong assumptions about strategy and tactics leading to an acute deficit in artillery, combined with capitalist interests denuding the arms industry to the point where shells and cannon can no longer be built in amounts necessary to fight a war

and this was in fact a problem for the Entente: the French Army was riven with mutinies in Q2 1917. Popular history tends to hand-wave away how much of a close-run thing WWI was right up until America infused the Western Front with a couple million more men to throw away, and even then the armistice was signed without the Entente ever marching on Germany (with some fairly strong repercussions later on) because asking the armies to keep on fighting for however many months it took to break across the Rhine would have been a strain on societal cohesion and army morale
