The Battle of Tannenberg was one of the first major battles of World War I. It took place from August 23 - 30 in 1914. It was a resounding victory for the German army and proved that they could defeat larger armies through superior tactics and training.
This caused the Germans to pull even more men from their main force, in order to reinforce the Eastern Front. While this proved unnecessary, since the forces pulled from the Western Front were still in transit during the German victory at Tannenberg, the weakening of all-important right wing was problematic for the Schlieffen Plan.
