Overview When WWI began in 1914, few could predict its costs: With around 10 million soldiers and sailors killed and almost as many civilians, the world had never before seen such carnage. The economic costs were even higher: $186 billion was spent directly on war costs (around $2 trillion in today’s money). The human and economic consequences of the war meant that the costs didn’t end in 1918.
