What was the Zimmermann Note and what did it propose?

The Zimmermann Note was a secret diplomatic communication sent by the German Empire to Mexico in January 1917 during World War I. It proposed a military alliance between Germany and Mexico, suggesting that if the United States entered the war against Germany, Mexico should attack the U.S. in return for the promise of recovering Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona. The note was intercepted and decoded by British intelligence, and its publication helped sway American public opinion against Germany, contributing to the U.S. entering the war.
