The Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, signed in March 1918, ceded large territories from Russia to Germany in exchange for peace during World War I. This treaty resulted in Russia recognizing the independence of Ukraine, Belarus, and the Baltic states, as well as significant territorial losses in the west. The agreement was part of the Bolshevik government's effort to end Russia's involvement in the war.
