Explanation:

The World War I broke out across Europe in 1914 by then the ,president of the United States was Woodrow Wilson. He proclaimed the United States would remain neutral, and many Americans supported this policy of nonintervention since it did not affect them in any way. However, public opinion about neutrality started to dwindle after the sinking of the British ocean liner Lusitania by a German U-boat in 1915; almost 2,000 people perished, including 128 Americans. Along with news of the Zimmerman telegram threatening an alliance between Germany and Mexico, Wilson asked Congress for a declaration of war against Germany. The U.S. officially entered the conflict on April 6, 1917.
