As the 11th hour, on the 11th day, of the 11th month of 1918, the First World War officially ended as Germany signed an Armistice agreement with the Allies. Ever since then, particularly in Europe, this day has been kept in remembrance of the nine million soldiers and five million civilians who died in that war, and all others who have died in wars since. In my home country, we wear red paper poppies as a sign of remembrance, and throughout the nation, a two-minute silence is kept at 11 AM.
