Answer:When World War I erupted in 1914, President Woodrow Wilson pledged neutrality for the United States, a position that the vast majority of Americans favored. Britain, however, was one of America’s closest trading partners, and tension soon arose between the United States and Germany over the latter’s attempted quarantine of the British Isles. Several U.S. ships traveling to Britain were damaged or sunk by German mines, and in February 1915 Germany announced unrestricted warfare against all ships, neutral or otherwise, that entered the war zone around Britain. One month later, Germany announced that a German cruiser had sunk the William P. Frye, a private American vessel. President Wilson was outraged, but the German government apologized and called the attack an unfortunate mistake. But when it kept happening the US declared war of Germany sending the US in WWI.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

The Yalta Conference essentially confirmed the accords reach in the previous Allied conference at Teheran in 1943, in regards to the unconditional surrender of the Axis powers. What was confirmed in Yalta was the commitment to create a new international organization, better equipped than the previous Society of Nations. This organization would be the United Nations.

Explanation:

The Yalta Conference was the entry point of the Cold War, that would essentially began after the Postdam Conference in 1945. What made Yalta relevant, was the commitment to install the United Nations as a heir of the former Society of Nations of the 1920's, but with the aim that this new organization would have a better way of coercing nations to respect international laws. However the conference also saw the Soviet Union using the leverage it had regarding the war, to make the US help it to force Britain to accept for example the Soviet occupation of Poland, in exchange for the Soviet war declaration over Japan.
