Because Germany had invaded France. The French finally managed to stop the German advance near Paris. Then both sides dug in. For both the French and Germans trench warfare was completely new and no-one on both sides had any idea how now to break the deadlock. They both had the technology - especially, the machine gun - to stop the other's traditional assault efforts, but no-one had a new assault technology available that was impervious to machine gun defence.

So the fight remained in France (and Belgium), right to the end of the war, when the Allies could still draw on large reserves of manpower and other resources with the recent advent of the Americans, but Germany simply was running out of replacement soldiers and its economy could no longer bear the cost of war.
