Russia and The Great War
Casualties

(1914-1918)

   

Cost of the Great War

Exact loss figures for the Great War are difficult to obtain.  This is due in part to the lack of English language material and the losses of Russian records during the revolution.  The numbers we use were obtained from British sources, if any definitive Russian sources come up we will use them. 

Number of personnel who served in the Great War: 12,000,000
