Notes
- ↑ America asserted the right to carry innocent shipments through neutral countries; declared the inclusion of neutral ports in the blockade to be novel and expected that England should respect the rights of neutrals.
- ↑ Germany declared that prisoners from submarines were not treated as prisoners of war. Great Britain answered that their treatment was better than that of British prisoners of equal rank in Germany and that prisoners from submarines were not honourable opponents, having been engaged in killing non-combatants.
- ↑ Austria offered district of Rovereto, Riva, Tionne, excluding Madonna di Campiglio, neighbourhood of Trento, and district of Borgo up to Lavis.

Sources: Various material contemporary with the war have been used to compile
Text has been transcribed from two out-of-copyright sources: Chronology of the War (1918-1920), and History of the Great War – Principle Events 1914-1918 (1922). Spelling of place names are original to British use at the time. Some typos have been altered or corrected for consistency. Duplicate or identical events between these sources have been amalgamated; as a result the date and wording may differ to the original texts.
Images come from scans or photographs of original sources, Wikimedia Commons, and the Imperial War Museum's online collections under the IWM Non-Commercial Licence. Attribution is given separately to the latter and do not come under the general licence of this site.
Advisory note: The information in these sources may not accurately represent up-to-date histories, present-day spelling of place names, or geographical boundaries. In some instances the language used may appear sexist or derogatory to the modern reader, and in rare cases, images may depict distressing scenes.
