You will find what you're looking for in each of the modern history subforums ("national study", "personality study" and "International..."). Look at the "important" (aka stickied) threads and there you will find many practice questions, especially if you have a popular topic.

EDIT: You were asking for WW1 questions. as such no one has posted any, but maybe soon they will.
