When did the First World War take place?

  1. 1910-1914

  2. 1914-1918

  3. 1920-1924

  4. 1939-1945

The correct answer is: 1914-1918

The First World War took place from 1914 to 1918. Option A (1910-1914) is incorrect because the war had not yet started in 1910. Option C (1920-1924) is incorrect because the war had ended by 1924. Option D (1939-1945) is incorrect because that is the time period of the Second World War. The First World War, also known as the Great War, was a global conflict that lasted from 1914 to 1918 and involved many of the world's major powers. It was sparked by the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria in 1914 and resulted in over 16 million deaths. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
