German submarines, or U-boats, significantly affected World War I by implementing unrestricted submarine warfare, which targeted not only military vessels but also civilian and merchant ships. This strategy aimed to blockade Britain and cut off supplies, leading to increased tensions with neutral countries, particularly the United States. The sinking of ships like the Lusitania galvanized public opinion against Germany and contributed to the U.S. entering the war in 1917. Overall, U-boats shifted naval warfare tactics and had a profound impact on the war's dynamics.
