America began its transition into internationalism and emerged as a world power in the late 19th century, particularly following the Spanish-American War in 1898. This conflict marked a significant shift as the U.S. acquired territories like Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, signaling its expansion beyond continental borders. The subsequent involvement in World War I further solidified its role on the global stage, establishing the U.S. as a key player in international politics and diplomacy. By the end of World War II, America was firmly positioned as a leading global power, shaping the post-war world order.

The sinking of the RMS Lusitania on May 7, 1915, angered the world and America because it resulted in the deaths of 1,198 passengers, including 128 Americans, raising concerns about civilian safety during wartime. The Lusitania was torpedoed by a German U-boat while carrying both passengers and munitions, which fueled outrage against Germany and its unrestricted submarine warfare policy.

Ultimately, it highlighted the dangers of maritime warfare and the impact on innocent lives, intensifying anti-German sentiment.
