The Zimmerman telegram to the German ambassador in Mexico was saying Mexico should enter World War I on the side of the Central Powers. This will get the US to fight on two fronts if it entered the war. If Mexico followed this telegram, it could've gained some of the land it lost during the Mexican-American War in 1846, like California, Nevada, Texas, Arizona, and other states in the region. Since the British intercepted the telegram and reported it to the US, this shifted US public opinion to pro-British and anti-German.

Why did Zimmerman note outraged American public opinion?
The Zimmerman Note outraged American public opinion because it revealed Germany's attempt to incite Mexico to join the war against the United States during World War I. The telegram suggested that if Mexico allied with Germany, it would help Mexico regain territory lost to the U.S., including Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona. This perceived threat to American sovereignty, coupled with the British interception and publication of the note, fueled anti-German sentiment and contributed to the U.S. decision to enter the war. The combination of betrayal and a direct challenge to national security stirred public outrage and rallied support for intervention.
