What did the Lusitania mean to the US?
The Lusitania was a passenger liner which was torpedoed on May 7, 1915 by the German submarine U-20. This occurred because Germany set up a submarine blockade, threatenng to attack any vessel in the seas around Great Britain during World War I. In truth, Lusitania was secretly carrying war supplies to the Allies (you must remember that at this time America had not joined the war yet). Thus, the first significance of Lusitania to the US was that it was an attempt to transport war supplies from the US to Great Britain. Another important factor was that Lusitania killed 128 Americans. This created quite a bit of bitterness between the US and Germany, which made Germany obliged that it would no longer fire without warning. (However, as you will soon see, when Germany again declared unrestricted submarine warfare, the US was drawn into the war). Thus another important part of the Lusitania attack was it being the catalyst for America's joining World War I.
