Explanation:

Between 1820 and 1850, many German immigrants arrived in the United States. These immigrants came looking for political and religious freedom. They also came looking for better work opportunities than those that could be found in Europe. These immigrants settled everywhere in the country, but a large number of them chose the territory that extends from Pennsylvania to Oregon. Nowadays, German-Americans are the largest white ethnic group in the United States.

when world war i broke out across europe in 1914, president woodrow wilson proclaimed the united states would remain neutral, and many americans supported this policy of nonintervention. however, public opinion about neutrality started to change after the sinking of the british ocean liner lusitania by a german u-boat in 1915; almost 2,000 people perished, including 128 americans. along with news of the zimmerman telegram threatening an alliance between germany and mexico, wilson asked congress for a declaration of war against germany. the u.s. officially entered the conflict on april 6, 1917.
