Explain your reasoning, and cite two specific
pieces of evidence to support your answer.

Respuesta :

U.S. involvement in WWI was unavoidable.

Explanation:

  • U.S. involvement in WWI was unavoidable because United States supported the ideas of Allied forces from the beginning.
  • First, in the middle of the war, the ship Lusitania was sunk in May 1915, and to this day it has never been fully explained how it happened.  
  • Lusitania was a British passenger ship sailing from Liverpool to New York on May 1, 1915. Six days later he reached the coast of Ireland where he was attacked by German submarines at about 2 pm without any warning.
  • The Germans fired one torpedo, which caused considerable damage and caused another explosion, since the ship was transporting a huge amount of weapons for the Allied army - 600 tons of explosives, six million bullets, 1300 bombs and various other weapons. Then 128 American passengers lost their lives.
  • The US entry into the war on the Entente side was primarily motivated by the economic interests of the bankers who funded the Entente.
  • On the eve of World War I, America had a giant foreign debt. However, after the war, the United States became the largest creditor, concentrating 70% of the world's gold reserves after World War II.
