The assassination of Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914 was the catalist that started WW1. In 1917 u-boats sank the RMS Lusitania off Ireland with the loss of many American lives, propelling the US into the war against Germany. The british blockade of Germany in 1918 and the subsequent revolt by the German people, caused the navy to mutiny and the government to fall; ending the war.
The United States entered World War I as a result of the sinking of the Lusitania (an American passenger liner) in 1915 and the Zimmerman Telegram (which was a German diplomatic cable urging Mexico to join the Central Powers in order to receive there lost territories in the USA) in 1917. In addition, Germany used unrestricted submarine warfare which resulted in the sinking of several passenger ships with Americans aboard.
Because the Germans kept using their unrestricted submarine warfare and torpedoed ships with Americans on board and then they sent the Zimmerman Telegram to Mexico saying that if Mexico declared war on the United States then Germany would help them win back the land they lost in the Mexican-American War.
The United States became involved in World War 1 because the Germany’s disruption of Allied trade routes led to the entry of the United States into the war.
The US and the Allies won the war and the US gained control of the Philippines, causing it to become a world power.
Yu mean how* not who* & the us join the ww1 cause they wanted to become a world power & joinin world would defently help.
Many Americans became Isolationists after World War 1 since they felt there were millions of needless deaths and the issues and troubles in Europe were not our troubles. They were right in essence but they failed to understand that World War 2 was about them.
