An armistice is an agreement between warring parties to stop fighting and lay down arms, often as a precursor to peace negotiations. It does not necessarily mean a formal end to the war but allows for a cessation of hostilities to discuss terms. Armistices can be temporary or indefinite and are typically negotiated to facilitate humanitarian efforts or to create conditions for a more permanent resolution. An example is the armistice that ended World War I on November 11, 1918.
