The peace agreement signed at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918 was the Armistice of Compiègne, which marked the cessation of hostilities between the Allied Powers and Germany, effectively ending World War I. This agreement laid the groundwork for the formal peace treaty, the Treaty of Versailles, signed in 1919. The date is commemorated as Armistice Day or Veterans Day in various countries, honoring those who served in the war.
