Three reasons why the United States entered World War I:

• Germany's use of unrestricted submarine warfare.

• The sinking of the Lusitania

• The Zimmerman Telegram

~

Before World War I, Germany pledged to the United States that they would no longer use unrestricted submarine warfare. Although they knew it might trigger the United States into entering the war, they wanted to take the chance anyway. Numerous ships, including U.S. cargo ships were sunk, angering the United States.

The Lusitania was a cruise ship with over a thousand people on board, including Americans, Germany attacked the Lusitania using a u-boat. This angered many people, including civilians, who wanted Germany to pay for killing many people. Many people wanted the United States to join World War I after this, but President Woodrow Wilson was more of a pacifist who wanted peace and didn't want his country to join the war.

The Zimmerman Telegram was the final straw for President Woodrow Wilson and after this caused the United States to join World War I. Germany tried sending a telegram to Mexico, stating that if they attacked the United States, they would be promised American territories when Germany won the war. This was a major threat, so President Woodrow Wilson declared war on Germany.

Where did term bootlegger<br> come from
pickupchik [31]

The selling of unauthorized, uncertified, unstamped alcoholic drinks is referred to as bootlegging.

During the US's time of prohibition, many similar businesses arose.

The Southern regions of the nation were home to some of the most significant sites for the manufacture of spirits. Most notable were the numerous "stills" in the Appalachian mountain ranges, where it was quite simple to remain undetected by onlookers.

The "stills" were essentially home-built distilleries where whiskey was created from the region's abundant maize. It was combined with additional substances including yeast, sugar, water, and even meat.

Fermentation could take place because the materials were heated in metal vessels and the steam produced was directed via a coil of tubing. Then it was put into "jugs, or Mason jars."

It was a very basic whiskey, occasionally poisoning those who drank it. Bootleg was a phrase used to describe people who stowed their "flasks" inside the legs of their boots. As the phrase developed, it came to be used to describe those who produced and sold whiskey illegally.
