When World War I broke out across Europe in 1914, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the United States would remain neutral, and many Americans supported this policy of nonintervention. However, public opinion about neutrality started to change after the sinking of the British ocean liner Lusitania by a German U-boat in 1915; almost 2,000 people perished, including 128 Americans. Along with news of the Zimmerman telegram threatening an alliance between Germany and Mexico, Wilson asked Congress for a declaration of war against Germany. The U.S. officially entered the conflict on April 6, 1917.

Why was the progressive movement more successful than the populist movement?
yulyashka [42]
The Progressive Movement was more successful because it "fit" with society in the 1890's. Society in the 1890's was the industial, urban, and corrupt government. It was the embodiment of the Progressive Movement because that it was it set out to change; corrupt government,  working conditions ect. But the Populist movement was agrarian (farm like) and wasn't going on in the time period. Industrialisation was happening, and farming was pushed to the backburner. IT's often said that people only care about something when it happens to them, and that was the Progressive Movement. More people were factory workers than rural farmers, so they cared about the movement that affected them.

At witch battle did the Americans and French surrounded the British forcing them to surrender
klemol [59]
The last British Army in the area was led by General Cornwallis. The army retreated to the town of Yorktown. But then they were attacked. The British tried to escape by sea but the recently allied French had their navy blocking the British ships from escaping. While the French were blocking their escape by sea, the combined army of the Colonist and the French attacked by land. With no hope of escape or reinforcements, the British surrendered. This marked the last battle of the Revolutionary War.
