The difference between the effrects of World War 1 on Europe and Asia?

I am writing a compare/contrast essay on the effects of World War 1 on Europe and Asia. I need to know some similirities and differences, especially the differences between the way their societies dealt with their problems and the differences in how their economy was affected.

The war in Europe was a war of attrition, with little ground gained on the western front, but many lives lost. The eastern front in Europe was something like a yo-yo, with one side making huge territorial gains, only to lose them because their supply lines were spread too thin.

The war in Asia was much more one-sided. Japan allied with the Allies & wound up taking much of Germany's colonial possessions in that region.
