Explanation:

After the Russian Revolution, the new Bolshevik - led government signed the Treaty of Brest - Litovsk in 1918 and exited World War I. This allowed the Central Powers (Germany, Austria - Hungary, etc.) to re - allocate troops and resources previously used against Russia to focus on the other Allied countries in the west. The Central Powers did not win the war as a result of Russia's exit, and the United States entered the war due to issues like German unrestricted submarine warfare and the Zimmermann Telegram, not because of Russia's peace treaty. Also, Austria - Hungary was already in the war on the side of the Central Powers.

Answer:

Russia's new government exited the war, making it easier for the Central Powers to focus on the other Allied countries.
