Summary

The Battle of the Bulge, fought from December 16, 1944, to January 25, 1945, was a significant World War II conflict in the Ardennes region of Belgium, France, and Luxembourg. Initiated by the German army, it aimed to surprise and divide the Allied forces. The Germans launched a massive offensive, creating a bulging salient in the Allied line, thus giving the battle its name. Despite initial success, the German advance was ultimately halted due to determined resistance from American troops, harsh weather conditions, and reinforcements brought in by the Allies. The battle marked a turning point in the war, leading to Germany's eventual defeat.
