The Sussex pledge - May, 1916
The Zimmerman telegraph - sent in January, 1917
US declaration of war on Germany and Central Powers - April, 1917

Explanation/details:

When Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in Sarajevo in 1914 by Serbian nationalists, the reactions by the Austrian and Serbian governments kicked into gear various alliances that had been made. Russia stood ready to protect Serbia. Germany sided with Austria over against Russia. Before long the whole affair plunged Europe into war, pulling the other nations into the conflict in support of prewar alliances they had made.
The military plans laid before World War I presupposed a major war between the countries which were tied together with alliances. Because the Triple Entente had Britain, France and Russia as allies, Germany thought if a war began it would need to fight on two fronts -- west and east. So German Field Marshall Alfred von Schlieffen drew up war plans that said attack France first, quickly, and then hold that territory while deploying forces to contend with Russia in the east. So when Germany declared war on Russia in 1914, the first thing it did was to invade Belgium on its way to atacking France. Thus the war spread and became instantly a more global conflict.
Public outrage in the US against the Germans swept the nation following the sinking of the British ocean liner, Lusitania, which had happened in May, 1915. When a German U-boat (submarine) sank the Lusitania, 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. After the Sussex, a French passenger ferry, was sunk in 1916, the US demanded and got a promise from Germany to stop their unrestricted submarine attacks. Germany managed to stave off American entry into the war at that time by the Sussex Pledge. But two years, later, beginning February 1, 1917, the Germans resumed such attacks. This poised America to go to war.
British intellegence intercepted and decoded a telegram (known as the "Zimmermann Telegram") that showed Germany was trying to secure Mexico as an ally against the United States. The revelation of this plan inflamed feelings in the United States. The telegram was sent in January, 1917. In March, 1917, German Foreign Secretary Arthur Zimmermann admitted the telegram was, in fact, sent by his office.
In April, 1917, the US declared war on Germany in response to the German's submarine warfare and the Zimmermann Telegram.

Answer:

During the first half of the 1800s, there were great differences between the north and the south of the United States, which were what later motivated the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861.

Thus, in economic terms, the economy of the north was much more developed and industrialized than that of the south, since it had manufacturing production in large cities, as well as an incipient metallurgical industry driven by the expansion of the railway and a booming industry. of boat manufacturing. In addition to all this, there were the agricultural and livestock activities that provided food to the region. In contrast, the south only carried out productive activities in the primary sector, mainly exporting cotton, tobacco and grains to Europe.

In turn, politically, the north was a Republican and liberal redoubt par excellence, where its inhabitants promoted foreign trade without large tariffs and the presence of the federal government in public policies. Instead, the south was essentially Democratic and conservative, with inhabitants who defended the rights of the states over those of the federal government and who advocated protectionism over the economic and commercial activities that the states carried out.

Finally, on social issues the differences were also in sight. Thus, while the North was a region whose inhabitants defended the abolitionism and equality of all men based on criteria emanating from the Enlightenment, the South was clearly pro-slavery, based in turn on the "inherent inequality" between African Americans and whites.
