The German Army fought with outdated weapons.
During World War I, the war's Western Front turned into a stalemate after initial advances by the German forces for primarily one reason. That reason is this: defensive technologies and tactics in the early 20th century were more advanced than offensive technologies; thus, offensive breakthroughs were either not possible or, where achieved, could not be sustained at length. Significant victories could only be achieved where some external element (e.g., egregious leadership mistake, troop demoralization, lack of supply) occurred, but these did not occur on the Western Front until 1918.
Trench tactics provided an excellent defensive line, however, because of this advantage, a successful ground attack was very difficult to accomplish. This imbalance of attack vs defense caused a stalemate because each army didn't want to risk attacking the enemy trenches as they would most likely be defeated.
Neither side could gain a clear and decisive victory.

The War of 1812 (which in actual fact lasted from 1812 until early 1815) was waged between the United States of America and the British Empire. With conflicts at sea and on land, the war ended in a virtual stalemate, although on the American side it resulted in a tremendous swelling of national pride along with a much more secure western border.
