1. Circumstances that caused Wilson to change his mind and enter WW1: · Zimmerman Telegram - Germany sent to Mexico. Britain intercepted it and gave it to US Pres. Wilson. Germany planned to start unrestricted Submarine warfare on US and invited Mexico to join. (Germany was planning on breaking the Sussex pledge). · British influence in the US - Americans wanted to enter on the side of the Allies because the Germans and countries on the other side of the Allies were attacking us. · Submarine warfare and freedom of the seas - Germany was planning on starting submarine warfare on US and trying to control the seas. Then US wouldn't have any freedom and wouldn't be able to trade.
n August 1914, President Woodrow Wilson asked Americans to remain impartial in thought and deed toward the war that had just broken out in Europe. Wilson wanted the United States to exemplify the democratic commitment to peace, but "The Great War" continually challenged the nation's neutrality. American farms and factories fed and armed Europe's armies; both the Allied and Central powers violated international laws governing ocean travel and shipping. For almost three years, the President presided over a difficult, deteriorating neutrality, until finally the provocations could no longer be ignored or negotiated. In this lesson, students will analyze one of the most significant moments in twentieth century U.S. foreign relations: Wilson's decision to enter World War I in order to make the world "safe for democracy."

President Woodrow Wilson was very ambivalent about taking the U.S. into World War I. Not until the sinking of the Lusitania "forced his hand" did Wilson take the U.S. to war. Thus, U.S. involvement in WW I lasted just from 1917 to its end in 1918.
"Freedom of the Seas" was a speech delivered by Woodrow Wilson in 1917, during World War I.
