Neutrality Costs

US in WWI ( ) A civilian ship, The Lusitania, is sunk by a German submarine on its way from the US to England! Americans are outraged. We’re neutral! We are not funding anyone…at least not publicly. Privately we fund England, and supply their soldiers. The Germans claim that we had weapons on the ship and that’s why they sunk it.

The Zimmermann Note The Zimmermann Note is intercepted by the British. It is a proposition from Germany to Mexico: if they declare war on the US, Germany will help them. Mexico is not interested; they have issues of their own. German U-boats continue destroying American civilian ships. We finally declare war on April 6, 1917.

Americans in Europe The American Draft takes men from African-American soldiers love Europe! Why? The situation is quite grim when the Americans get there. Complete stalemate: nobody’s winning; nobody’s losing; everyone’s dying.

Russia Leaves the War Meanwhile, the Russian revolution occurs in Communist Russia, under Lenin and the Bolsheviks, pulls out of the fighting. Germany is elated! They must only fight on one side now. Thankfully, this coincides with Americans entry to the war, so troop levels remain even.

The war ends. Finally. The Americans, as the fresh troops, continue to fight, fight, fight. They push through the Argonne Forest, where 120,000 of our men die. Eventually, it is not weapons, but starvation, that prompts the Central Powers demise. As their people begin rioting, the Central Powers give in one by one. On November 11, 1918, the Armistice is signed, signaling the end of fighting.
