Why was Zimmermann telegram important in world war 1?
The Zimmerman Telegram was the catalyst that brought the United States into World War I. The Allied nations intercepted a German telegram to Mexico in which Germany promised to support Mexico in a bid to recapture territory it lost to the United States in the previous century (namely, California, Arizona and New Mexico) the Mexicans would go to war with the United States to distract it from joining the War in Europe. Whereas the German policy of unrestricted submarine warfare bothered President Woodrow Wilson more than any foolhardy proposition of Mexico, public fury against the Germans gave Wilson what he needed to finally join the side of the Allies and thus bring the United States into one of the most devastating wars in history.
How was World War 1 cause for World War 2?
After World War I ended, the four big countries of the Allies (Great Britain, United States, Italy, and France) sat down and discussed. They came up with the terms for the Treaty of Versailles. Germany thought the Treaty would essentially be based on Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points Speech, which essentially told the other countries to leave Germany alone after the war. However, David Lloyd George (prime minister of Great Britain), George's Clemenceau (prime minister of France), and Vittorio Orlando (prime minister of Italy) wanted Germany to pay for the damage they had caused to the Allies. They demanded reparations, which meant that Germany would have to pay a large sum of money to the Allies (they finished paying it back in 2010). They also confiscated Germany's colonies, which prevented Germany from paying the money back. Finally, the Treaty of Versailles contained the War-Guilt Clause, which blamed the entire war solely on Germany. Germans were outraged by these punishments, but the Allies threatened to continue the war if Germany did not sign the Treaty of Versailles, so they had to sign. Later, Hitler took advantage of the resentment that Germans felt because of the provisions in the Treaty of Versailles. The treaty also reduced Germany's military to 10,000 men in the army, but Hitler remilitarized Germany.
