People say it sparked WW1 but it has also been argued that it was inevitable anyway. As a point of interest, I read somewhere Allister Crowley was on the Lusitania=that should make you think.
When it sank the United States wasn't in WW1, but after the sinking the US joined the war. The people who were recovered from the sinking were taken to an Irish port and placed in a mass grave that can still be seen today..
The Zimmerman Telegram and the sinking of the Lusitania-
The sinking of the Lusitania caused the US to get involved.
Many weren't necessarily eager, because they were drafted. if they were eager though, it was because they were eager to get back at the Germans for sinking the Lusitania. this ship sinking was the last straw which sent the US into the war in 1917.
do you mean what caused us entry into world war one? if so then the sinking of the USS Lusitania by German u-boats was what caused American entry into the war
The sinking of the Lucitania
"Unrestricted submarine warfare" led to a u-boat sinking of a passenger ship, Lusitania, with US citizens on board. This was the official excuse to enter the war.
