This contemporary illustration shows German bases in Belgium during World War I being attacked by Allied planes. The Allies were aligned against the Central Powers. The Allies included Great Britain, France, Russia, and later the United States. The Central Powers were Germany, Austria-Hungary, and later Bulgaria and Turkey. The planes were actually quite dangerous as aviation for humans was only 11 years old.
