="Rape of Belgium"= The title "Rape of Belgium" means the stripping of power and security in Belgium by Germany. Belgium, which was once ranked sixth in the world for industrial power, now struggles to get back up on its feet to fight again. In 1914 Germany attacked Belgium, violating their treaty, but the German Chancellor thought of it no more than a "scrap of paper." They plundered homes, raped children and woman, and set everything to fire, not much remained after this act. Germany caused terror and hardship. It lasted more than fifty months and kept seven million Belgians hiding in a corner. With the title of this time being named rape of Belgium, it reminds allies that justice be brought to Belgium which was only a victim in the incident. Still today there is debate on what exactly happened.
