How the Germans lost the ww1?
Germany's two major allies, Austria-Hungary & Turkey, were being defeated, and on the verge of collapse when the Germans began their last final offensive in France in the spring of 1918. The Germans had just defeated the Russian and were concentrating all efforts on winning in France before the bulk of American troops could begin arriving in France in mid-1918. The German spring offensive failed, in part because American troops that had already arrived in France were sent to the front to help the French. By mid-1918 the additional American troops allowed the British, French, and Americans to conduct a series of successful attacks that finally broke open the German lines. The German army quickly realized that final defeat was coming soon, so they convinced the German government to end the war with an Armistice.

Did the Germans win the battle of Kursk?
No. The Russians were forewarned of the attack. They created strong, interlocked defensive positions, to a depth of fifty miles in the threatened area. They allowed the Germans to blunt their weapons on the defenses, then went over to the counter-attack. The Russian counter-offensive beginning at the end of Kursk kept rolling until the Russians were in Berlin. After Kursk, the Germans never had the strength to mount another major offensive. It was their last grab for victory, but it still took nearly another two years to completely defeat the Nazis.
