Two key German actions that prompted the United States to enter World War I were unrestricted submarine warfare and the Zimmermann Telegram. The resumption of unrestricted submarine warfare in early 1917 threatened American shipping and lives, notably leading to the sinking of the Lusitania in 1915. Additionally, the Zimmermann Telegram, in which Germany proposed a military alliance with Mexico against the U.S., further inflamed public sentiment and pushed the U.S. towards war.

What caused the depopulation in the German states?

Depopulation in the German states during the 19th century was primarily caused by a combination of factors, including widespread emigration, particularly to the United States, due to economic hardship and social unrest. Additionally, the population was affected by high mortality rates from wars, such as the Napoleonic Wars, and epidemics like cholera. Industrialization also led to urban migration, drawing people away from rural areas, further contributing to population decline in certain regions.
