During the First World War, the development of Russian splints continued, especially military-event, as in our case. The military event splint illustrated the reports of Russian and foreign news agencies, which reflected the fighting on the Russian-German and Russian-Austrian fronts: the battles in East Prussia and Western Ukraine; Poland and the Carpathians; battles of the Caucasian Army and the Black Sea Fleet against Turkey; events in France and Belgium.
