Explanation:

World War I ended with an armistice. The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh terms on Germany, which amounted to a form of military - like surrender in terms of territorial losses, reparations, and disarmament. Germany was made to accept responsibility for starting the war. The US did not surrender, and the British were not made to accept responsibility for starting the war.

A. Although World War I ended with an armistice, peace terms amounted to a military surrender by Germany.
