How did germany's final push contribute to the end of ww1​

Answer 1

Answer:Just did this in class.

Germany’s final push contributed to the end of ww1 because they are taking one last chance before ALL the U.S. forces come in (many are already on shore), since they know they won’t be able to beat them (the U.S. are fresh into the war and their men are ready for battle). Many Germans were tired of war (many abandoned and ran off), they lack supplies and food. It’s shows the downfall of the war bringing to the country and with Germany gone, the central powers lost a major fighting force and they will eventually need to surrender since they aren’t as powerful.

A bit of info on Germany’s final efforts in the world:

On March 21, 1918, the Germans fired using more than 6,000 heavy guns at the Somme River, firing at the Allies. They caused 133,000 French and British dead/wounded while 250,000 Germans died. After this, they were able to advance their way to the Marne River. General Pershing of the U.S. forces stopped them when they advanced 50 miles to Paris and pushed them back to Germany. However, as a result the U.S. lost 12,000 men.
