The Germans pulled back and left a Bulge around the town of Bastogne. The Americans seized it with the 101st Airborne Division. They set up a perimeter and then, the Germans moved in around the Americans, and then attacked the perimeter. This action the created the "Bulge", and began The Battle of the "Bulge".

The Battle of the Ardene's (commonly referred to as the Battle of the Bulge) lasted for 31 days. It began on December 16, 1944 when the German Army launched a massive artillery barrage followed by a 3 Army attack. The battle ended on January 15, 1945 when Allied forces met up, closing of the Ardene's. And it was in a forest and there were no fighter planes involved. There were 700 tanks on the Allies side and only 500 on the Axis side.

Germany was soundly defeated in Africa, in Normandy, and in Stalingrad. They ended up being creamed in the Battle of the Bulge after a long bloody battle.
The Battle of the Bulge (officially known as the Ardennes Offensive) was the last major Nazi offensive of World War II. The attack began on December 16, 1944 to try and beak up the alliance between Britain, France and America in western Europe. The battle was a last ditch attempt by the Nazis to split up the allied offense towards Germany. The Allies were caught off guard by the attack and there was a bulge created in the Allied front line. (Which is how the battle got its popular name.) But the German's initial success lasted only two days. By December 23rd the Americans had started their counter-attack. On Christmas Eve the Allies were attacked by the first ever attack by jet bombers. But by mid-January 1945 the Germans, running out of fuel, just had to abandon their vehicles. The Battle of the Bulge was the largest battle of the war with 600,000 US troops engaged in the battle. There were 81,000 American troops lost and 100,000 German casualties.
The weather played a crucial role in the outcome of the Battle of the Bulge. The weather had cleared up enough to allow massive Allied airpower to destroy much of the German army. The German Luftwaffe was overmatched and ineffective to save its German ground forces.

During World War II, the three most important European battles that took place were the Battle of Britain in 1940, the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942/1943, and the Battle of the Bulge in 1944/1945. The first ensured that Germany would not win a quick victory in the war. The second proved that Germany had, indeed, overstretched itself by engaging in a two-front war. The third used up the last of Germany's military reserves, ensuring its final defeat while also enabling the Soviet Union to gain control of most of Eastern Europe, which set the stage for the Cold War to come.
