World War I affected the worldview of many Americans in a negative manner, showing that America helped out tremendously in the last year of the war. But as a result of the creation of the League of Nations and Wilson's push towards United States involvement in world affairs, many felt that we as a country wanted to focus more on domestic issues and thus the United States was never involved in the League as the Senate failed to ratify the treaty. Athletes became popular during this time period as the media and people glorified them to an extent with the example of Babe Ruth especially, along with people like Charles Lindbergh becoming a American legend after flying solo nonstop from New York to Paris with his own aircraft "Spirit of St Louis". The media put them on a pedestal as a result.

Yakvenalex [24]

The two reasons:  

  • Britain intercepted the Zimmerman Telegram
  • Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare

Context/detail:

Public outrage in the US against the Germans swept the nation following the sinking of the British ocean liner, <em>Lusitania</em> -- but that happened before 1917.  When a German U-boat (submarine) sank the Lusitania in May, 1915, over 1,000 persons were killed, including more than 100 Americans. The passenger liner was targeted by the Germans because they suspected weapons were being shipped to Britain in the cargo hold of the ship.

Germany managed to stave off American entry into the war at the time by pledging to stop submarine attacks.  But a couple years later they resumed such attacks, and there was also an intercepted telegram (the "Zimmerman Telegram") that showed Germany was trying to secure Mexico as an ally against the United States.  

In 1917, the US declared war on Germany in response.
