Premise: The Allies of World War I , or Entente Powers , were the countries that opposed the Central Powers in the First World War . The Paris Peace Conference , also known as Versailles Peace Conference , was the meeting of the Allied victors , following the end of World War I to set the peace terms for the defeated Central Powers diplomats from more than 32 countries and nationalities . The Triple Alliance , also known as the Triplice , was a secret agreement between Germany , Austria-Hungary , and Italy formed on 20 May 1882 and renewed periodically until it expired in 1915 during the Diplomatic history of World War I. Germany and Austria-Hungary had been closely allied since 1879 . World War I ( WWI or WW1 ) , also known as the First World War , the Great War , or the War to End All Wars , was a global war originating in Europe that lasted from 28 July 1914 to 11 November 1918 . Although Italy was a member of the Triple Alliance alongside Germany and Austria-Hungary , it did not join the Central Powers , as Austria-Hungary had taken the offensive against the terms of the alliance .
Hypothesis: WWI was a war that never happened.
