The U.S. was a neutral country in the begining of the war. They got involved because they felt that their status as a neutral contry had been violated because the British passenger ship called the Lusitania was sunk by a German U-boat. U.S. citizens were aboard and died. In turn, this is what caused Americans to waiver in their stance on neutrality. This is just a summary of it. A Problem The Lusitania was sunk in May 1915, and the U.S. declared war on Germany in March 1917. It's perfectly possible that the sinking of the Lusitania marked the start of a decisive shift in opinion in America, but it can't possibly have been the reason for the America declaring war on Germany. Try 'unrestricted submarine' warfare instead. THE REAL REASON WHY AMERICA ENTERED THE WAR America did not enter the war after the sinking of the Lusitania. In fact, President Wilson still remained neutral after the sinking but warned Germany to stop using submarines or in fact they would enter the war. It was two years later, in 1917, that a telegram was intercepted by the British. The telegram was called the Zimmerman telegram and was from Germany on its way to Mexico. The telegram was asking Mexico to join the war and be on Germany's side and in return they would give them Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. But since the British were our Allies, President Wilson immediately got word. Another reason for entering the war, is that Germany also started using submarines again in 1917. As well as Tsar Nicholas II abdicated. Leaving Wilson to join a mostly democratic alliance.
the us got involved in ww1 after Germany proposed an alliance with Mexico against the united states. well, we really didn't like that so we declared war on Germany becoming a part of the allied powers
US military intervention has been a success in some situations and a failure in others. Some of the successes include the intervention during the First World War, while a failure was the intervention in Somalia.
do you mean what caused us entry into world war one? if so then the sinking of the USS Lusitania by German u-boats was what caused American entry into the war
Militarism, the other three causes for US entry into the war are imperialism nationalism and alliances.
Is this one a joke? The answer is neither. It was based on US intervention in Somalia in 1993, 50 years after WWII and 80 years after WWI. Practical helicopter technology didn't exist during either of the World Wars.
Freedom of the seas. what it was was there hair was a mess and they needed hair jell

Non-intervention
Non intervention.
The move from wanting to stay out of the war to intervention was a matter of trying to help the unemployed by helping the UK and creating employment. The attack on Pearl Harbor was what brought the US into the war.
Name the 4 causes of world war I
The US was a direct/primary combatant.
The Jews
nationalistic tensions, unresolved issues, and resentments
We joined the war because the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.
Pearl Harbor pushed us to intervention during World War II, and 9/11 pushed us into war in 2003. Americans like to be isolationist, as long as it means we won't get hurt despite not being in the war. If we get hurt, we send out the big guns.
blahblahblah
