There are three. The sinking of the British liner Lusitania by German submarines that killed 128 US citizens, the Zimmermann telegram in which Germany promised aid for a Mexican invasion of the United States and the fact that if the Allied Forces lost, they wouldn't be able to pay back the money they borrowed from America.
