Thesis In the 2nd Battle of the Marne, the German offensive failure in the east allowed French and American forces to mount a successful counteroffensive and drive the Germans back; this put the Germans on the defensive and marked the final failure of the Schlieffen Plan, making it the last major battle of WWI.

Background Location: River Marne. Northeast of Paris. Last battle of World War I. German General Erich Ludendorff. U.S General Charles Summerall and General Harbord. Casualties: French(95,000), U.S(12,000), Germany(168,000) France and U.S successfully defeated Germany

The Battle Itself July 15th- August 5th 1918 Chief of Staff Erich Ludendorff led the German offensive Erich Ludendorff

German Strategy German divisions attacked the French army both in the east and west Attacks failed in the east French army was aided by around 85,000 U.S soldiers Attack on west was much more successful

Counter-Offensive Ferdinand Foch, the Allied Supreme Commander, authorised a counter-offensive Goal was to eliminate German troops on French frontline Resulted in German retreat

German Offensive Route
