The bar graph shows the pre-war sales figures to two major alliances: The Triple Entente and the Central Powers. The Triple Entente had significantly higher pre-war sales, reaching an estimated $2,300,000,000, while the Central Powers had considerably lower pre-war sales, estimated at $100,00,00. This indicates a substantial difference in the economic engagement of these two blocs with external markets before the outbreak of war.(doc 10)
