There were no "allied" and "axis" powers in World War One, as the name "axis", used for one side in the WW2 comes from the 1940 "Tripartite or Axis Treaty". The two combatant blocs in World War 1 were:

  • The Entente Powers: France, The British Empire and Russia, participating in support of Serbia. They were joined initially by Belgium and Montenegro, and later on by Japan, Italy (1915), Romania (1916), Greece (1916-1917) and the United States (in 1917). Russia exited the conflict in 1917.
  • The Central Powers: Austria-Hungary, Germany and Turkey (the Ottoman Empire) plus Bulgaria.

The two blocs were fairly evenly balanced between 1914 and 1917. In 1917, Russia, after a two revolutions (the last one won by the communists), signed a peace deal with Germany, temporarily ending the war on the Eastern Front. However, on the Western Front, the intervention of the US, combined with a drained and internally weakened Germany and Austria lead to the victory of the Entente in late 1918.
