Question

Which was a consequence of the United States’ entry into World War I?

Answer 1

When World War I broke out across Europe in 1914, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the United States would remain neutral, and many Americans supported this policy of nonintervention. However, public opinion about neutrality started to change 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.

Answer 2

German troops became demoralized and eventually surrendered in the face of the arrival of fresh US troops.

Step-by-step explanation:

The United States had been providing some support to the Allies prior to its own entry into the war. But when the US joined the effort fully with a declaration of war, that not only meant the arrival of fresh US troops but a commitment of even more American dollars to the Allies' war effort.
