Answer:

The Russian Revolution allowed the Germans to focus on the Western Front, and it also pressured the Americans to send more military and economic aid to the Allies. German soldiers who were in Russian POW camps were also infected with ideas of socialism and they pressured the German government to sign the armistice.
