An armistice is not actually the ending of a war but a way to stop fighting to see if something can be worked out. Most groups fighting a war want to win it. Perhaps they see that an armistice is not a true win. WW2 ended with an armistice and no one side actually won or lost.
an armistice is an agreement to stop the fighting. It does not bring a complete end to the war. A treaty is generally required to completely end a war. World War 1 for example had the fighting cease after the armistice of November 11, 1918. The true end to the war occurred after the Versailles Treaty of 1919.
Armistice is different from surrendering. It's the stopping of fighting so both sides find a truce. Surrendering is the declaration of defeat by one side. The winning side provides the terms of surrender.
