Answer 2

The Eastern front lay from the Baltic Sea to the Black sea. The Russians now had to fight two fronts, because they were fighting against Germany as well as Austria-Hungary. Germany and Austria captured Russian territories like Courland, Livonia and Estonia and till the end of war these places remained under German domination. In 1916 Germany captured Bucharest, the Capital of Romania and also occupied two-thirds of that country. By capturing Romania, Germany received kerosene, petrol and grain in abundance.
