>western front going to shit with fortification they built up for years being over run, invasion of Germany proper was pretty much inevitable
>military itself was pretty much heavily demoralized with ever increase amount of soldiers and even officers either surrendering or just outright abandoining their posts
>made worse by the fact the country was experiencing food shortages meaning the civilian population was less willing to go on
>made worse by the fact all their allies had collapsed meaning not only even more entente troops would come but now they had even more fronts to attack Germany from

Churn and logistics. The German lines would have crumbled within months and once it started it would have been fast and brutal. After a brutal winter both at the front and at home.

They should have just given up Saarland to British India so they could create the far superior Saarland bastards Aryan race.

No they actually did the right thing by suing for peace in the nick of time before Germany could be ravaged and the enemy could demand even harsher terms.

The Hundred-days offensive was originally just a skirmish. Allies expected a real offensive to be ready in 1919. The Skirmish however turned into a complete rout and the allies realised that Germany was broken.

Armistice was rushed because France and Britain freaked out that USA would give Germany a favorable peace.
