The Second Battle of the Somme, fought in March and April 1918, was part of Germany's Spring Offensive during World War I. The battle resulted in a tactical victory for the German forces, who aimed to break through Allied lines. However, the offensive ultimately failed to achieve its strategic objectives, leading to a prolonged stalemate. The battle showcased the intense fighting and high casualties that characterized the war during this period.
Allied forces-French, British, Americans, etc.
The British lost the Somme, because they had many more casualties the Germans did. The main reason for this is because the British artillery did not wipe out German defenses especially the barbed wire. So, when the British tried to advance the barb wire was still in place and the British were mowed down by the German machine guns.

The Allies won World War I through a combination of military strategy, economic strength, and cooperation among their nations. Key victories in battles such as the Battle of the Somme and the Second Battle of the Marne, along with the entry of the United States into the war in 1917, provided crucial reinforcements and resources. The exhaustion of Central Powers, exacerbated by blockades and internal dissent, ultimately led to their collapse. The signing of the Armistice on November 11, 1918, marked the end of the fighting and solidified the Allies' victory.

In 1914: Marne (Aug), 1st Ypres. In 1915: Gallipoli(Feb), 2nd Ypres, Tannenberg (Tannenburg). In 1916: Verdun (Feb-Dec), Jutland (April), Somme (June), Cambrai (Dec). In 1917: 3rd Ypres (Passchendaele) (June). I would also say that 1918 on the western front was massive as well, some incredible battles were fought, sacrificed and won there.
