How did submarine warfare anger citizens of the US?
Subs are sneaky; that's what they do. When subs sank vessels without warning...it angered people. But if a sub skipper (ship's captain) warned a ship before he sank it; he endangered himself, his vessel, and his men. Because while he's on the surface "being a nice guy", the allies are coming to sink him...because the ship he intends to sink has just radioed the allies of the subs POSITION!

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.
