The German defeat at the Second Battle of the Marne (July-August 1918) stopped the last major German counter-offensive of World War I. It was quickly followed by a second Allied success at the Battle of Amiens (August 9-12, 1918), beginning the climactic Hundred Days Offensive.
The only allies involved in this battle was the Soviets. This was because initially at the time, it was the German advance into Russia, so the other allies couldn't help. As well, it be nearly impossible to help as at the start of the battle, the western front was in a intense phase and allies in west such as Britain and US needed the resources they had to fight of the Germans.
The western Allies landed on Sicily in July 1943, and then on mainland Italy in September. On the eastern front the Soviets went on a counter-offensive after stopping the German onslaught at Kursk, and kept rolling until they reached Berlin.
Until the winter of 1942-1943, the German army was victorious in an almost unbroken chain of battlefield successes. Europe lay under German domination. After a successful German advance in summer 1942, the battle for the city of Stalingrad in late 1942 proved a turning point. Soviet forces halted the German advance at Stalingrad on the Volga River and in the Caucasus. After this defeat, German troops were forced on the defensive, beginning the long retreat westward that was to end with Nazi Germany's surrender in May 1945, some three years later.

Stalingrad
By January 1943, the Soviets already launched their counter offence and as a result, the German flanks began to weaken. After this the soviets launched a final counter offence (Operation Little Saturn) and this was a res ponce to the German offence known as Operation Winter Storm. During January, the soviets were in the 2nd stage of Operation Little Saturn and during this month, the Soviets destroyed the Hungarian 2nd Army and nearly encircles the German 2nd Army. On January 13th 1943, whilst the Soviets destroyed the Hungarian 2nd Army, they also attack the Italian 8th army Alpine corp and this corp was unaffected prior to January 1943. Once the soviets were able to advance 200 KM, they encircled the Italian Alpine Corps. This was similar to what happened to the German 6th Army but unlike the German 6th Army, the Alpine corps fought their way out and on January 17th,the launched a full retreat.
