The Great War, as it was called then, started in Europe in the summer of 1914 and remained primarily a European war for its duration. By 1915, however, the German practice of unrestricted submarine warfare had been established in the waters surrounding England. Over the next two years, this practice resulted in the sinking of more than half a dozen US ships bound for England, and especially the passenger liner Lusitania, with the loss of nearly 1,200 civilian passengers.
In April 1917, the US declared war on Germany and its allies. When the war ended a year and a half later, the US was one of the victors, alongside Great Britain, France, and others.

What did the US have to gain by remaining neutral foreign affairs?
War causes economic recessions. By staying neutral we hoped to stay out of debt. That is mostly true but the answer depends on the time period. During WW1 the US tried to stay neutral to stay progressive. During other wars the answer really varies. But the first answer really sums it up, saving money and staying out of debt is a main priority. Wars cost billions of dollars, in the case of WW1 many of countries went into depression and for us it is known as the great depression.
