9 Apr 1917 Jahr - Battle of Vimy Ridge (+1) Progress

Beschreibung:

The victory proved the power of Canadian soldiers. Also gained international reputation. Turning point in Canada’s history as a nation. One of the major reasons is that soldiers from every region of Canada — fighting together for the first time as a single assaulting force in the Canadian Corps — had taken the ridge together.
The achievement gave many Canadians a new sense of national pride and identity. Before the war, most Canadians were still thought Canada as part of the Britain. The victory may be part of a reason that Canada became a independent country. The citizens were likely to trust a country that had power and good reputation. The victory of Vimy Ridge proved that.
