Answer: January 1917, British cryptographers deciphered a telegram from German Foreign Minister Arthur Zimmermann to the German Minister to Mexico, von Eckhardt, offering United States territory to Mexico in return for joining the German cause. This message helped draw the United States into the war and thus changed the course of history.

The main effect of the Zimmermann Telegram was how it contributed to the United States joining World War I. The United States was trying very hard to stay out of World War I, President Woodrow Wilson even ran his presidential campaign by using the slogan, "He kept us out of war."

President Woodrow Wilson did not want the United States to join World War I whatsoever, he strived for peace and to keep the country safe. This was challenged when the Lustiana got sank by a German U-boat, which happened to have American passengers on board. This angered a lot of Americans and made them want the United States to join the war, but President Woodrow Wilson still decided to remain neutral. Germany also continued to use unrestricted submarine warfare on multiple occasions, which was another reason the United States joined World War I,

The Zimmermann Telegram was a telegram that was from Germany and going to Mexico, but it got intercepted. This telegram stated that if Mexico were to attack the United States, Germany would give them land when they won the war. This obviously caused outrage among Americans and shortly after, President Woodrow Wilson asked Congress to declare war.

When the construction plans for Auschwitz were made, what was the original purpose for the camp?
Wittaler [7]

When the infamous Auschwitz Concentration Camp was created, its construction plans were primarily <u>A. to house Soviet POWs.</u>

Opened in 1940, Auschwitz, also known as Auschwitz-Birkenau, infamously became the largest Nazi concentration and death camps.  Its original construction plans were not to become:

  • A women's concentration camp
  • Weapons and tanks factory
  • Concentration Camp for murdering Jews.

Thus, the original construction plans were altered to become a killing center for Jews instead of <u>housing Soviet POWs.</u>
