Unrestricted submarine warfare is a naval war tactic in which the submarine attacks merchant ship (or any ship not in the navy) without warning. Germany used this tactic on American vessels at the start of WW1, and that is a major reason that the US joined the war effort against the Germans.

Where did most unrestricted submarine warfare occur?
US subs sank Japanese vessels in the Pacific & German subs sank British/US vessels in the Atlantic. It might be a toss up, if it weren't for the fact that: 1. That's all the DKM did was sub warfare (after the US got into the war). 2. The USN was doing alot more than sub warfare; they were fighting cruiser, destroyer, PT Boat, Battleship, and Aircraft Carrier warfare. Consequently, US subs did alot of sinking...but were alot smaller sub force than the DKM (German Navy). The Atlantic most likely saw more unrestricted sub warfare. The Atlantic was a "Guerre de Course," a war of commerce raiding-NOT a battle between surface warships.
