To determine which country had the most casualties according to the chart provided, we need to sum the number of killed and wounded for each country. The data for the number of killed and wounded is as follows:
- France:
- Killed: 700,000
- Wounded: 4,950,000
- Britain:
- Killed: 908,371
- Wounded: 4,226,000
- Russia:
- Killed: 357,800
- Wounded: 4,266,000
- United States:
- Killed: 116,516
- Wounded: 204,002
Now, let's sum the killed and wounded for each country:
1. France:
[tex]\[
700,000 \text{ (killed)} + 4,950,000 \text{ (wounded)} = 5,650,000
\][/tex]
2. Britain:
[tex]\[
908,371 \text{ (killed)} + 4,226,000 \text{ (wounded)} = 5,134,371
\][/tex]
3. Russia:
[tex]\[
357,800 \text{ (killed)} + 4,266,000 \text{ (wounded)} = 4,623,800
\][/tex]
4. United States:
[tex]\[
116,516 \text{ (killed)} + 204,002 \text{ (wounded)} = 320,518
\][/tex]
Comparing these totals, we find:
- France: 5,650,000
- Britain: 5,134,371
- Russia: 4,623,800
- United States: 320,518
From these results, France had the highest number of casualties with a total of 5,650,000 casualties.
