What caused the united states to suspect the germans were planning an invasion of latin america?

Almost many years earlier than the onset of global war I, Kaiser Wilhelm II set his imperialistic attractions on the Americas. However, to set up a presence there, Germany would be placed the U.S. in its region. To that end, it devised no longer one, but three plans to attack and invade the USA. Here's how history may want to have unfolded very in another way.

The strategy for Royal Germany's invasion of the US only came to light after the files were determined in 2002 at the German navy archives in Freiburg. It changed into an exquisite and disturbing discovery, one which tested the volume to which the Kaiser was willing to exert Germany's presence onto the world — an urge that might maintain properly into the 20th century with the invasion of France in 1914 and the rise of Hitler's Third Reich.
