Step-by-step explanation:

The armistice, which marked the end of World War I, was signed on November 11, 1918. This armistice came into effect at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, hence the significance of November 11th as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day in many countries. This day is now commemorated as Veterans Day in the United States.
