Key Points

The first part of the sentence is given, and it refers to World War I.
Part R specifies the name of the first world war and the reason behind the name:
- as "The Great War", was a four-year conflict that spanned the globe––involving thirty-two countries in total;
Part Q and Part P will follow Part R as they state how the war started:
- it was an unforeseen war that resulted from a series of calamities that broke the delicate arrangement of European powers,
Part S states how the war ended and tells us about the number of casualties.
- and ended with the loss of over eleven million military personnel and seven million civilians.

Hence, the correct passage: The First World War, known at the time R. as "The Great War", was a four-year conflict that spanned the globe involving thirty-two countries in total; Q. it was an unforeseen war that resulted from a P. series of calamities that broke the delicate arrangement of European powers, S. and ended with the loss of over eleven million military personnel and seven million civilians.
