Why the First World War DID NOT end in 1918

When the First World War ended, that did not mean an end to the fighting. It took until 1923, 5 years later, for peace to return to Europe.

In this week’s episode of IWM Stories, Assistant Curator Geoffrey Spender takes a closer look at three of these conflicts: The Irish War of Independence, The Russian Revolution and The Greco-Turkish War.
