Which was not true of the armistice to end world war 1?

One misconception about the armistice that ended World War I is that it was a formal peace treaty. In reality, the armistice, signed on November 11, 1918, was simply an agreement to cease hostilities while negotiations for a formal peace treaty were to take place later. Additionally, the armistice did not address the underlying issues that caused the war, leading to further conflict and the eventual need for the Treaty of Versailles in 1919.
