The United States entered World War I for numerous reasons. A German victory would have upset the established balance of power. Should England and her fleet fall into the hands of Germany, the United States would have been in extreme peril to further German expansion. Americans were also upset by the sinking of the Lusitania and the Sussex, both carrying US citizens, by German submarines. In his campaign of 1916, President Wilson had promised Americans that he would maintain freedom of the seas. This eventually led to direct US involvement in the war in order to stop German subs, which were ignoring the US's position of neutrality, from attacking US ships.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

The maritime effect is the moderating influence that the ocean has on the climate of a region. In the case of the easternmost states in the USA, the proximity to the ocean and the more moderate maritime air masses usually prevents the most frigid Arctic cold from parking over the region for too long.
