The price of victory
Following conscription, roughly 1.9 million men comprised the Austrian Army at the start of the war; by wars end, 2.2 million men had served in the army. During six years of war the army had suffered 1,528,057 killed and wounded, and a further 34,210 were captured. At the end of the war the army comprised of only 680,523 men, of whom 460,100 were within regular units; while some regular units had been raised during the war, the statistics hinted that it was the conscripts of the new army that had taken the brunt of the losses.

Central Powers fleet: 493 ships, represents the loss of around 400 ships most likely from Portuguese, Dutch, and German fleets.
Most of the major naval engagements were over by the end of 1916, the war then turning into smaller local conflicts and smaller ship on ship actions. Roughly 150 Entente ships had been sunk by this point, raising towards the 250-300 mark by the end of the war. Of the central alliance losses: 493 ships by the end of 1916, by the end of the war most of the German fleet had also been lost.
