    A German U-boat sank the British liner Lusitania in 1915, killing over 100 Americans and heightening anti-German sentiment in the US. In 1917, the Zimmerman Telegram proposed a German-Mexican alliance against the US, further straining relations. Germany also resumed unrestricted submarine warfare, sinking ships without warning, which pushed the US closer to entering World War I. Germany's resumption of attacks and its broken promise in the Sussex Pledge led President Wilson to declare war on Germany in April 1917 in order to ensure global democracy.
