In 1918, Germany's surrender, bringing the First World War to an end, resulted from at least three related causes. First, the German people were exhausted and also suffering from the Allied sea-blockage of their country. Second, German troops were demoralized and war-weary, with many refusing to fight further. Third, Allied forces were increasing in strength, especially through the vigorous entry of the United States into the fray.

His deputy commander attempted to proffer his sword to the French general, who pointed him toward General Washington. Washington declined to accept the sword of this subordinate, and pointed him to General Benjamin Lincoln, one of Washington's division commanders. Lincoln had been captured in May 1780, when he had to surrender Charleston SC, and had recently been exchanged. So this formal gesture of surrender was received by Lincoln.This formal ceremony of surrender was on October 19, 1781, two days after the British showed a flag of truce.
