The Zimmermann Telegram. Germany's foreign minister Arthur Zimmermann tried to secretly convince Mexico to join World War I as a German ally- Germany knew the US was angry about Germany's submarines, and expected an American entry in the war on the side of the Allies. They hoped Mexico would join on the side of the Central Powers and be a distraction so the US couldn't easily send troops to Europe. British spies intercepted the telegram and gave a copy to the US government. The president was furious and shortly thereafter, the US declared war. Within a year, the US was sending large numbers of troops to France, contributing to Germany's surrender a few months later. Ironically, Mexico did get the telegram and briefly considered it.
