The main idea behind Wilson's abandonment of USA’s neutrality and entry into First World War is advantages and influence USA would have in economy after devastation of war that was mostly settled in Europe. However, Wilson declared as official reason sinking of merchant ship Lusitania, carrying 128 American on board, and that German actions can’t be tolerated.
