There was. We don't talk about it much in the West I suppose, but Central and Eastern Europe, the entirety of what used to be the Ottoman Empire, the entirety of Russia and central Asia, became an absolute conflagration. Germany made peace with Russia in 1917, laid down a series of border states from former Russian land, and then went on to focus fighting in the West. They then lost and those treaties they had drawn up became irrelevant... Except people had already had over a year to begin establishing these new states. This entire region was full of armed groups who suddenly had no real legal authority to restrict them other than what they themselves decided was legal.
Meanwhile suddenly the Allied powers are supporting Greece as they invade Turkey, they're forcing essentially ethnic cleansing on huge parts of the Balkans and Eastern Europe to satisfy the new borders they've drawn up, and they're sending tens of thousands of men to fight the Bolsheviks in Russia. The new Weimar Republic in Germany dealt with three attempted revolutions in as many years.
Its a fascinating period for sure, as others have said I don't think in the modern era we quite comprehend what a huge cultural shock this was for everyone involved, but in the defeated nations in particular it completely upended society from the bottom to the top.
I found The Vanquished to be a really interesting read and very accessible given how complicated this period is to unravel.
