Answer: In conclusion the U.S. played a substantial role in World War I and didn’t really stay true to their word.

Step-by-step explanation:

The U.S. Navy played a major role in helping blockade Germany, keeping out supplies and hurting the German economy badly. The United States had more than 4,000,000 military personnel involved in World War I. The U.S. forces that were sent to Europe during World War I were called the American Expeditionary Forces or AEF. They also joined allied forces in 1917 which was around the time the U.S. officially declared war on Austria-Hungary. Even though in the beginning the United States Government tried its best to stay neutral. But Germany believed the U.S. Jeopardized its neutrality by acquiescing to the allied blockade of Germany. When German forces sank a British passenger vessel, killing 128 people, many were americans. American citizens pressured the government into taking part in the war. The additional firepower, resources, and soldiers of the U.S. helped to tip the balance of the war in favor of the Allies. Public opinion on the war was often split as there were many immigrants who had ties to both sides. In conclusion the U.S. played a substantial role in World War I and didn’t really stay true to their word.
