  3. After the sinking of the Lusitania, Germany agreed not to attack any more passenger ships.
    In 1917, however, Germany broke this promise and began attacking U.S. ships.Soon afterwards, in April 1917, the United States declared war on the Central Powers.The countries that made up the Central Powers were:
    Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, and the Ottoman Empire.

  11. The United States went into war because German submarines were sinking ships and they sunk a passenger ship called the Lusitania. Then Germany promised they would never sink passenger ships again, but then they broke their promise and they started sinking American ships. America got mad, so they went to war.

  13. What started the war for America was that a German sub sandwich(subamrine)sank a passenger ship carrying over 100 Americans, they promised never to do it again, but broke that promise and sank more and more American ships. They also entered the war because of a letter sent to Mexico saying to form an ally with Germany and take over the United States.

  14. American President Woodrow Wilson, along with many other Americans, didn't want America to join World War I, for it was a European wra. However, America became involved in World War I because on May 7, 1915, Germany, who is on the Central Powers (which included Germany, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire), sunk British passenger ship Lusitania which had many Americans on board. They also became involved because in Febuary of 1915, Germany sent Mexico a telegram called the Zimmerman Telegram saying that if they joined the war (on their side of course), they would help Mexico get back some land in the south-west they had lost from America. This included Texas, California, New Mexico, and Arizonia. America was furious. The Allied forces (which included France, Russia, Belgium, Serbia, and Great Britian) soon became desperate for help. America joined the Allies and won World War I!

    Oops, I forgot to add that Germany lied after they sank U.S. crago ships and promised that they wouldn't sink and more ships but they sank the passenger ship. I also forgot to add that the Central Powers surrendered and signed a peace treaty called the Treaty of Versailles and got blamed for the war and had to pay billions of dollars for it.

  15. The war was mainly caused because of nationalism. Many European Empires wanted their country to have more power than all the rest. The war was about to begin.

  17. What caused the United States to enter war was the sinking of Lusitania because Germany made a promise that they would stop but they kept on sinking their ships and killed many people in the U.S so America declared war on Germany and that is what caused the United States to enter World War 1.
