The Schlieffen Plan - 5 Key Points

1 . The Schlieffen Plan was ? s tactical solution for avoiding a two - front war with and Russia .

2 . Under this plan , drawn up in 1905 , France would be forced to a quick by a German invasion in the north .

3 . German forces would move through neutral nations like Belgium and Luxembourg , bypassing French .

4 . Schlieffen ? s initial plan , modified by General von Moltke , became the accepted in the event of a European war .

5 . The plan allowed the Germans to French territory quickly and with relatively few losses , however , the speed and logistics of the advance meant that it could not be , allowing the French to quickly mount a response .

The Schlieffen Plan also under - estimated the military capacity , infrastructure and speed of of both France and Russia .

On the Eastern Front , the Russians were able to launch an against Germany faster than anticipated . The French also organised and moved their own troops rapidly . Several hundred Paris taxis were even by the military and used to ferry thousands of troops to defensive positions .

The German advance was ultimately at the week - long Battle of the Marne ( September 1914 ) . Their inability to advance beyond the Marne contributed to the use of warfare and the formation of the Front .

A historian ? s view :
" Demands imposed on men and animals , the requirement for perfect co - ordination over long distances and the difficulty of entrenched opponents all suggest that the plan could never have succeeded . Schlieffen ? s plan was a brilliant strategy but designed for an era when armies numbered in of thousands , not in the of thousands and millions . Still , the details of planning seem to have provided the basis for a pervasive that they could win the war that they believe would happen , and that they could win it . "
