There are two major “Battles of the Marne” in World War I; each involved different combinations of forces.

1) First Battle of the Marne (6–12 September 1914)
- Allies: French Army (main force) supported by the British Expeditionary Force (United Kingdom). (Belgian forces had fought earlier in the campaign but were not a principal force at the Marne.)
- Opponents: Imperial German Army.

2) Second Battle of the Marne (15 July–6 August 1918)
- Allies: Primarily the French Army, supported by British and Commonwealth units (BEF, including Canadian, ANZAC contingents), American Expeditionary Forces (AEF), and some Italian and colonial troops in supporting roles.
- Opponents: Imperial German Army (several German army groups).

If you want, I can list the major army formations and commanders involved in each battle or give a short summary of how each battle unfolded.
