So i am nearing the enddate and i have yet to see a war ,titled The great war.
I am playing as Germany and have just fought of France for humiliation. It was called the honor war...
 
You receive a popup that says that great wars are available. After you've received that, any war with more than two GPs is considered great, I think. Your war, presumably 1v1 with France (spherelings and satellites aside), was thus not a great war.
 
Were there any other Great Powers involved in your war? If it was just Russia vs France without any other Great Power intervention, then it's not a Great War.
 
The really odd thing about the invention of Great Wars in 1900 or so is that the first war widely known as "The Great War" finished in 1814.
