The entire history of Europe is one of constant, vicious and brutal wars. Yes they exported it overseas but IMO WW1 is a continuation of a tradition of continental violence, not colonial violence that came home.

One could argue rather the colonial violence is an export of the European history of war, as Chomsky does in "Year 501"
