The Zimmerman telegram was basically a telegram that was allegedly sent from the Germany to Mexico, that was intercepted by British intelligence. It said in a nut shell that Mexico in order to create an alliance with Germany and help end the war, should attack America and take back lost land (Texas, Arizona, New Mexico), and gain financial support , thus thrusting America to stop supporting the Allies.

Although the Germans claimed that it was a fake created by Britain to gain support, the US still entered the war on the Allies side only a few months later.

It is the tellgram that george zimmeran sent secretly to mexicio.
