Answer:

President Woodrow Wilson asks Congress to send U.S. troops into battle against Germany in World War I. In his address to Congress that day, Wilson lamented it is a fearful thing to lead this great peaceful people into war. Four days later, Congress obliged and declared war on Germany.

In February and March 1917, Germany, embroiled in war with Britain, France and Russia, increased its attacks on neutral shipping in the Atlantic and offered, in the form of the so-called Zimmermann Telegram, to help Mexico regain Texas, New Mexico and Arizona if it would join Germany in a war against the United States. The public outcry against Germany buoyed President Wilson in asking Congress to abandon America’s neutrality to make the world safe for democracy.

<u><em>A. Toleration of Act of 1649</em></u>

Taxation without representation was the biggest one of them all because, that was the entire reason why the US wanted to become independent from the British. Coercive Acts were the acts were British soldiers had to be quartered in the American's homes and Tea acts and etc. Therefore, the only answer would be A. (I don't even know what Act A is.....) All I know is that B, C, and D are all reasons for the Revolutionary War. Pretty famous reasons too.
