On "The Eastern Front", outnumbered Germany defeated Russia at The First Battle of Tannenberg early in WW1(August 17-September 2, 1914. A German force of about 150,000 (20, 000 casualties)commanded by Hindenberg and Ludendorf defeated a larger force of 190,000 Russians who were commanded by Samsonov and von Rennenkampf. German troops killed around 30,000 Russians and captured another 95,000 which almost completely destroyed the Russian Second Army. Russia was effectively eliminated as a combatant as a result of this battle.

On the "(All Quiet on)The Western Front", German and Triple Entante forces engaged in an nearly 6-month long (July 1-November 18, 1916) trench-warfare known as The Battle of the Somme. It was one of the worst battles in the history of the World in terms of human lives lost, with over a MILLION casualties. The British suffered over 50,000 killed and wounded on the first day alone. Total casualties eventually reached astonishing totals.
Battle of Jutland-1916
I can see reasons for the above: I don't think there ever was a turning point really, WW1 was a huge conflict in Europe which involved many Nations. The German Military felt betrayed & undefeated at the Armistice in 1918. No single battle or conflict established the Allies as winners..... The entry of the USA certainly made a significant difference to the Allies chances of success in the West, but the defeat of Russia was a boost to Germany & Austria/Hungary. The British & Commonwealth Forces were winning against the Turks in the Middle East & in East Africa.
When the British campaign at Gallipoli fails(1915). The Battle of Verdun(1916). The United States enters the war(1917). Russia with draws because of the Bolshevik revolution(1917). The last German offensive fails at Somme(1918).
One of the major turning points in the First World War include Russia dropping out of the war due to the signing of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. The other is when Germany no long had to fight a two front war.
Two major turning points of the war are the entry of the United States.
the U.S. remained neutral until Germany used illegal submarine warfare to sink ships carrying goods and U.S. passengers. The United states entered the war in 1917 and helped its allies win the war
Another major turning point in the war is the Russian withdrawal. A revolution broke out in Russia, which forced them to sign a treaty with Germany withdrawing Russia from WW1.
The two major turning points of WWII was the Battle of Midway. After this battle the Japanese navy was crippled and could never be they way the was it was before the battle. The second turning point of WWII was the battle of the Buldge. After this battle the German army was destroyed and the only hope of defending Germany was lost. Also in the eastern front another battle was the battle of Stalingrad. This battle cost the Germans about 800,000 troops being captured or killed(German and other nations it conquered). This was the last German offensive on the eastern front.
Hope this helps.
When the U.S.A took total control of all fronts and made Germany and its allies to surrender then the war ended.

when rasa was beating usa in world war 1 so that is y they turning point
The real question your asking here is why there were turning points. The answer is because in every war, the chances of final victory differ between each battle fought. An example of this is WW2. There were defiantly some turning points in that whole thing. Additionally, play COD black ops, i think you will find that this game is surprising informative. I based my whole PHD on that game. I hope this answer will help your stupid little dog like face :D

Two major battles are widely regarded as turning points. In the European Theater - The Battle of Stalingrad. In the Pacific Theater - The Battle of Midway.
The major turning points and allied victories in world war II includes the destruction of Stalingrad which brought down the German army and saw to it that Russian army became stronger, the destruction of the Japanese fleet making them defensive and the attack on Pearl Harbor making US go to war. Finally, there was the German invasion of Russia that opened the eastern front leading to the downfall of Germany.
Midway, Battle of Britain, those are the biggest I can think of right now.
