Before WWI Germany made the triple-alliance with Italy and Austria-Hungary.

Bulgaria and the Ottoman empire joined the alliance, against the Entente with UK, France and Russia. Other countries joined the Entente too.

When Italy swapped sides in 1915, the remainder of the German war alliance was called the central powers.

In WWII the term "the allies" was used about those fighting with the UK against the Axis powers (Germany, Italy and Japan, with their collaborators).
