| - The Entente Powers (from Triple Entente) were the countries at war with the Central Powers during World War I. The main allies were the Russian Empire, France, the British Empire, Italy and the United States. France, Russia, and the United Kingdom, entered World War I in 1914, as a result of their Triple Entente alliance. Many other countries later joined the Allied side in the war .It should be noted that U.S. President Woodrow Wilson and his administration were determined not to define the U.S. as an "ally". The United States declared war on Germany on the grounds that Germany violated American neutrality by attacking international shipping. The U.S. entered the war as an "associated power", rather than a formal ally of France and Britain, and maintained that distance throughout the war. The U.S. was not at war with some of the Central Powers, such as the Ottoman Empire or Bulgaria. Although the Dominions and Crown Colonies of the British Empire made significant contributions to the Allied war effort, they did not have independent foreign policies during World War I. Operational control of British Empire forces was in the hands of the five-member British War Cabinet . However, the Dominion governments controlled recruiting, and did remove personnel from front-line duties as they saw fit. From early 1917 the BWC was superseded by the Imperial War Cabinet, which had Dominion representation. The Australian and Canadian army units were grouped in their own separate army corps, under Australian and Canadian commanders, who reported in turn to British and/or French generals.In April 1918, operational control of all Allied forces on the Western Front passed to the new supreme commander, Ferdinand Foch.

- Ympärysvallat eli liittoutuneet olivat ensimmäisen maailmansodan toinen sotaa käyvä liittouma, johon kuului mm. Ranska, Iso-Britannia ja Venäjä. Nämä ja muut ympärysvallat ympäröivät vihollisiaan keskusvaltoja, joita olivat Saksa, Itävalta-Unkari, Bulgaria ja Ottomaanien valtakunta. Ympärysvaltojen alue oli keskusvaltojen aluetta suurempi, ja suurempien raaka-ainevarojen ja muiden voimavarojensa vuoksi he olivat keskusvaltoja voimakkaampia ja voittivat sodan. Ympärysvaltoihin kuuluivat Yhdistynyt kuningaskunta dominioineen (Kanada, Australia, Uusi-Seelanti, Etelä-Afrikka), Ranska, Venäjä, Serbia ja myöhemmin sotaan liittyneet valtiot, mm. Italia, Portugali, Romania, Kreikka, Japani ja Yhdysvallat. Italia liittyi ympärysvaltojen puolelle 1915, Romania ja Kreikka myöhemmin. Monet pienemmät maat horjuivat ennen liittymistään ympärysvaltoihin. (fi)
