Some reasons as to why the United States entered the war
The united states got involved in WW1 because of many factors. the first factor is the German's submarine warfare with the uboats. the Uboats failed to issue warnings and this tactic reinforced americans beliif of germans being uncivilized. another factor is the Zimmermann note or telegraph.this was a note written in 1917 by a german diplomat proposing an alliance with mexico. the russian revolution propelled the alliance with russia. America was concerned about being allied with the czar,czar nicholas the second. with the czar removed from power, america was able to ally with this nation. and lastly, but certainly not least, the sinking of the Lusitania. the Lusitania was a british passenger liner traveling in the irish sea when it was then sinked by the german uboats. there were 1200 passengers and 128 americans were among the dead.
