Why did germany's use of U-boats lead to conflict with the US?
In World War I, Germany's use of U-boats (or, submarines) led to conflict with the United States for two reasons. First, the general American reaction to the use of U-boats, especially when utilized in an unrestricted manner, was thoroughly negative. This kind of warfare was often considered to be unlawful, cruel, even unfair. Second, the loss of American lives and goods when the U-boats began to sink American ships (despite their neutrality) led to war-fever at all levels of American society.

Why did submarine warfare push the US into World War 1?
The German government announced unrestricted submarine warfare against ANY ship sailing into Allied waters would be subject to surprise attack. Along with the German sabotage of Black Tom island powder magazine in 1916, the sinking of the Lusitania with American citizens onboard, and the Zimmerman telegram (German foreign secretary) that encouraged Mexico to ally with Germany and Mexico would win bad the former Mexican territory in the US South West, lead President Wilson to call for war. There were additional reasons, but I feel these were the Big Four.U Boats were causing havoc on the trade routes between the US and Europe by destroying merchant ships. One of the biggest factors was the sinking of the Ocean Liner "Lusitania" by German UBoats, of the 139 US Citizens on board 128 were killed. Also, when Germany began a Submarine Campaign against Britain President Wilson had previously stated he would hold Germany responsible if that were to occur.

Agreement by Germany to stop using unrestricted submarine warfare?
The sinkings of the RMS Lusitania and ferry Sussex caused enough public backlash against Germany that Germany changed its policy of unrestricted submarine warfare to a policy of attacking only ships that were clearly British. Neutral flagged and passenger ships would be afforded safe passage. Prior to this, U-boats operated under "Cruiser Rules", which effectively gave the ship warning, and time to evacuate before it was sunk. With the advent of air power and subsequent orders to ship captains to ram any surfaced U-boat, that policy became extremely hazardous. The policy of restricted warfare lasted until 1917, when Germany, responding to the effective blockade of Germany by Britain, once again executed unrestricted submarine warfare against any vessel thought to be an enemy or providing assistance to the Allies. This decision ultimately led the U.S. to declare war on Germany, which followed with Germany's defeat in 1918. It is notable to consider the possible outcome of the war if Germany had continued with unrestricted warfare rather than stopped. The Nazi U-boat campaign in the North Atlantic, as well as the American campaign in the Pacific, caused devastating losses and effect to both sides during WWII. The U-boats eventually were defeated in the Atlantic after the Allies developed sound anti-submarine warfare techniques, but it took time. The Japanese never countered the U.S. submarine threat in the Pacific, and it helped lead to their defeat. ASW techniques were essentially non-existent in WWI - had the Germans continued with their USW policy, the war may have gone much differently.

What events lead the us to join ww1?
The US entered into WWI as the result of unrestricted German submarine attacks on civilian cruise liners. The most famous of these is when a German U-Boat attacked and sunk the luxury liner the Luisitania (sister ship of the Titanic) killing hundreds of American, British, and Irish civilians. Furthermore, the interception and decoding of the Zimmerman Telegram by British intelligence revealed to the US a German plot to subdue American forces by bringing Mexico into the war as well, thus allowing the resumption of unrestricted submarine warfare. As a result of these aggressive maneuvers, the US government decided to change their stance from neutral, soon after declared war on Germany and the other cental powers.
Why did the country finally enter war during World War I?
Although there are many reasons for U.S. involvement in World War 1, the two major causes of U.S. intervention were the unrestricted submarine warfare tactics used by German submarines, and the interception of the Zimmerman note. The Germans were conducting free submarine warfare in the North Atlantic, sinking any foreign ships that crossed their path in an effort to "starve out" British supplies. Continued attacks against American ships, and ships carrying American citizens angered many. In 1917 the Zimmerman Telegram was intercepted and decoded by British soldiers and revealed a message from Germany to Mexico, saying that if Mexico declared war on the United States, Germany would help. These two factors helped fuel anti-German sentiments in the United States, and ultimately lead to American citizens supporting U.S. involvement in World War 1.
