In 1918, the Great European War ends with the downfall of all the monarchies on the continent.
Treaty of PragueAfter the Christmas Truce of 1914 had produced a huge body of soldiers unwilling to fight each other, these soldiers had returned to their native countries and begun fighting the regimes there. The 4 year struggle finally ended on this day with an agreement among the new governments in a dozen nations to never commit war against each other again.
The Treaty of Prague, signed by over a hundred soldiers and representatives of the new Peace governments, marked what President Wilson of America called, "the end of the war to end all wars".

~ I don't think it's plausible to imagine the 1914-'18 war really "ending war." The imagined agreeent would last as long as its signatories found it convenient, and not a day longer.
~ Would that it were.
~ @Eric Lipps: Some of those signatories were looking to break it before the ink finished drying.
