The revolution in Russia had begun and the treaty of Brest-Litovsk had been signed. It was signed by Lenin in 1918 in modern day Belarus.

Alliances: By Ryan Burgess
Many Alliances were formed in the building up of WW1. The two main groups formed of individual alliances was the Central Powers and the Allies. The Central powers consisted of Germany and Austria and other smaller countries. The allies consisted of countries like Britain, France and Russia. During these alliances each nation would turn to back each other up which is why many nations got dragged into a bigger conflict. This conflict was usually started with one group and then escalated to all the countries getting pulled in, leading to the war.

United States
Three reasons why the United States joined the war was because of the Sinking of the Lusitania, the Zimmerman telegram, and Unrestricted Submarine warfare from the Germans.
- US Troops fought on the Western Front, Indian Front, and Eastern Front.
- The Impact the U.S. created by joining the war was tipping the balance in power over to the alliances, destroying the Central Power's morale. But it also boosted the allies' morale and contributed to the treaty of versailles.

The soldiers who fought in the trenches experienced extreme conditions, from sweltering heat in the summers to bone-chilling cold in the winters. They had to share their food with rats and their beds with lice. The wet conditions often resulted in trench foot. The outcome of trench warfare was a never-ending stalemate, where both sides would gain a few feet but lose it all again, resulting in no significant progress or gain of territory for either side.
