As Fawaz narrates, the Middle East was not only ravaged by the war; it destroyed all
the economies and societies as well as decimating a lot of armies. The war led to the killing
of very many men, and the ones that were left were crippled (Fawaz, 2014). The places that
were once called home were neglected because of the mass killings and migration. Families
were scattered, and people lost their lives as a result of hunger and starvation. When the war

priority. The massive massacring of people leaving the villages without people was what

subjects.
Biographies/memoirs give starting passage to the investigation of timeframes and of
