The United States Declares War
Right after Wilson got reelected, the
United States was on the edge of war. It all started with the Zimmerman
Telegraph. The German official Arthur Zimmerman sent a telegraph saying that if
Mexico would help them with the war, they would give them all of their land
that America took control of. The United States found out about this telegraph.
On April 2, 1917 President Wilson went in
front of a joint session of congress to request war against Germany. On April
4, 1917 the U.S. senate supported the war against Germany. Then later on
December 7, 1917 the United States on Austria-Hungary. This is what put the
United States into the biggest and most well-known wars of all time.
