Britain

The Germans were shown as bloodthirsty, evil people, who drank the blood of humans after killing them, and fought the war for bloodlust. Many of Britain’s posters (right) were to put in place a hate for Germany, who was their main enemy during the war. The Germans, however, just wanted more land and supplies. They also portrayed their soldiers as brave, healthy, men, when most were actually wounded, ill or malnourished.

General Feel

Most posters made war seem like a wonderful thing to be a part of. The soldiers looked brave and healthy, and were fighting for their country. War was usually glorified, the men in posters handsome and healthy. However, war was gruesome, scary and often deadly. By playing up people’s consciences, the war effort would be fueled. Statements like “Do it for your country” or “Be a hero” made war sound like a brave thing to do.
