World War I was history’s largest, most destructive and costly war at the time, ending with the Treaty of Versailles, which was signed on June 28, 1919. The armistice that signaled ceasing of hostilities, however, was declared on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918.

The following year and every year after, the world celebrated Armistice Day on Nov. 11. It was declared a federal holiday in the U.S. in 1938. After World War II and the Korean War, it was expanded to include all veterans of all wars and renamed Veterans’ Day.
