The statement that best explains why Russia left World War I before it ended is:

The damage of the war caused an internal revolution.

This is because the prolonged conflict and its toll on Russian society led to widespread discontent and ultimately the Russian Revolution in 1917, which resulted in the Bolsheviks taking power and signing the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk to exit the war.
