Answer:

I can tell you why the U.S. declared war on Germany. Germany sank many American merchant ships. Also, the Zimmerman telegram caused anti-German feelings to rise.

Explanation:

Germany sank many American merchant ships that were around the British Isles. Also, Germany sank the <em>Lusitania</em>, which killed 1,200 people (including 128 Americans), so President Wilson threatened to break off all diplomatic relations if Germany didn't stop sinking passenger ships, which caused tensions to rise. Finally, the Zimmerman telegram was a telegram that Arthur Zimmerman (Germany's foreign secretary) sent a note to the German minister that was in Mexico, telling him to urge Mexico to attack the U.S. if the U.S. declared war on Germany.

Why were king ferdinand and queen isabella of spain willing to finance columbus?
kramer
Because they wanted him to toddle off to Florida to see if Disneyworld was all it was cracked up to be, dear Huy. Far better to send him off with a camcorder and a few dollars in his pocket. One personally feels that Disneyland is far superior but by the time the wastrel had returned they had already built Eurodisney in Paris.
