These are the correct statements that describe the United States' movement from neutrality to engagement in World War I.
- One of the main causes of the United States declaring war on Germany was the use of unrestricted submarine attacks.
-
President Wilson campaigned in the 1916 election with the slogan "He kept us out of war."
-
The United States began to support war against Germany after the Zimmerman telegram was intercepted.
-
The Zimmerman Telegram was from Germany to Mexico, promising them territory gained in the Mexican-American war if they allied with Germany.
Further details / historical context:
Prior to World War I, the United States had adopted a mostly isolationist view, not wanting to be involved in affairs across the ocean that were not directly related to our national security. When the war broke out, the United States did not impose a trade embargo on either side -- but American trade tended to be more with the Allies than with Germany. Similarly, President Wilson permitted loans to both sides, but loans to the Allies by 1917 were more than $2 billion, while American loans to Germany were only around $27 million.
Though Wilson campaigned in 1916 on the fact that he "kept us out of the war," by 1917 he and the nation were ready to go to war.
The reasons that led to US declaration of war:
- In January, 1917, Germany had resumed its policy of unrestricted submarine warfare. Germany had halted its attacks on non-military vessels (which it suspected of carrying military supplies) after the furor over the sinking of the Lusitania in 1915. But now Germany was resuming attacks by its U-boats.
- In February, 1917, the "Zimmerman Telegram" was intercepted by British intelligence and shared with the US. Germany's foreign minister, Arthur Zimmerman, had telegraphed an offer to Mexico's ambassador seeking Mexico's support in war vs. the United States in exchange for getting land back from the US.
- On April 2, 1917, President Wilson made a powerful speech to Congress in which he argued that the nation needed to enter the war "to make the world safe for democracy." Wilson's speech was powerfully convincing, and four days later, Congress declared war.
The correct answer is:
Sam Houston
Explanation:
Samuel Houston (1793-1863) was an American politician and lawyer who played a big role in the annexation of Texas to the United States.
<em>Houston was the main leader of the Battle of San Jacinto</em>, were <em>Santa Ana was forced to recognize</em><em> </em><em>Texas as an independent nation</em>. After that, Sam Houston was elected President of the Republic of Texas.
Although some people in Texas did want to be part of the United States<em>, a lot of Americans were already living in Texas</em> and wanted to become a state because being part of the United States Nation would get better protection, economic trades, and other benefits. Sam Houston was one of them, one argument Houston made was that Texas could not defend itself against hostile foreign powers.
Texas annexation was delayed because<u> Northern states did not wanted slavery to expand and Texas was a slave state</u>, Houston thought that if European countries were interested in Texas, the United States would admit them, so he sent J. Pinkney Henderson to England and France to negotiate trade alliances and secure Texas recognition.
However, it was until Sam Houston's second term that annexation was achieved, after long negotiations with United States President John Tyler, The House of Representatives voted to make Texas a state, and on December 1845 James K. Polk, the following President of United States signed the annexation of Texas.
Answer:
Well first of all the answer to your question is no. The Europeans treated African slaves horribly. They made them work all day. Slave trading between Africa and Europe began with the Portuguese, who were the first European nation to make continuous contact with Africa. African slaves were mainly taken to Europe to be used on a land that needed slaves. If a slave got tired, and slowed down or stopped, they would get a punishment.
