The armistice, signed between Germany and the Entente Powers, brought about the cessation of combat on the Western Front and effectively confirmed Germany's defeat. The legal termination of the war, however, was accomplished by the peace treaties signed a year later. The 11th of November has been recognized as a day of commemoration in many countries.
