The Treaty of Brest-Litovsk (1918) – The Bolsheviks End the First World War in the East

The Eastern Front of the First World War came to an end with the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk (1918). It took place after the October Revolution where the Bolsheviks took power in Petrograd. In March 1918 the Central Powers signed a peace with Soviet Russia. The Soviet delegation was first led by Adolph Joffe and later Leon Trotsky. It started with an armistice and after this negotiations took place. Ukraine (Ukrainian People's Republic or Ukrainian National Republic) signed a seperate peace treaty with the Germans. When Trotsky refused to sign the Germans launched Operation Faustschlag ("Operation Fist Punch"), also known as the Eleven Days' War. Learn more about the road to the Peace of Brest-Litovsk (1918) and how the Eastern Front of World War One ended.
