The Battle of Amiens, which took place in 1918 during World War I, was a pivotal moment in the conflict. It marked the beginning of the Hundred Days Offensive, a series of successful Allied offensives that led to the ultimate victory over the Central Powers. The battle started on August 8th and involved British, Canadian, Australian, and French forces, supported by tanks and aircraft. The main objective was to break through the German lines and advance towards the city of Amiens in northern France. Thanks to careful planning and the effective coordination of infantry, artillery, tanks, and aircraft, the Allies achieved a significant breakthrough within hours of the battle's commencement. The rapid progress and the use of new tactics such as the creeping barrage and combined arms greatly demoralized the German forces. The Battle of Amiens represented a turning point in the war, as it demonstrated the effectiveness of the new tactics and boosted Allied morale, paving the way for subsequent victories.
