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).

Why did the peace treaty the central powers and the Russians anger the allies?

The peace treaty between the Central Powers and the Russians, known as the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk in 1918, angered the Allies because it allowed the Germans to consolidate their forces on the Western Front. As a result, the Germans could focus all their military strength on the Western Allies, which prolonged World War I and made it more challenging for the Allies to achieve victory. Additionally, the treaty gave the Central Powers control over large territories in Eastern Europe, which threatened the stability and interests of the Allies in the region.
