Detailed explanation-1: -Veterans Day. The Allied powers signed a ceasefire agreement with Germany at Compiégne, France, at 11:00 a.m. on November 11, 1918, bringing the war now known as World War I to a close.
Detailed explanation-2: -Four years of hardship at home and the news of military defeats led to social unrest and revolutions in Germany, and the Kaiser abdicated in November. With a weakening military and no support on the home front, the Germans had to sign on the Allies’ terms.
Detailed explanation-3: -By the end of 1917, the Bolsheviks had seized power in Russia and immediately set about negotiating peace with Germany.
