  1. third battle of ypres

    The Third Battle of Ypres, also known as the Battle of Passchendaele, was a campaign of World War I, fought by the Allies against the German Empire. The battle took place on the Western Front, from July to November 1917, for control of the ridges south and east of the Belgian city of Ypres in West Flanders. It was marked by heavy rainfalls, causing the battlefield to turn into a quagmire, making movement difficult and resulting in heavy losses for both sides. The campaign ended in November when the Canadian Corps captured Passchendaele.
