The Battle of Ypres consists of a number of major conflicts during the First world war that took place after the German and Allied forces got bogged down in trench warfare around the Belgian town of Ypres.
The fighting in the area was often fierce and lasted nearly the whole length of the war, so the casualties were enormous - probably over a million dead.
