WWI (Why it happen)
World War One was an extremely tragic war for everyone involved. As I would say about any war, there’s was no reason to get involved in the war, unless you had to. That’s why when asked the question of whether or not the United States should have joined WWI, I think we shouldn’t have. The United States should not have joined the war, not only because we had no substantial reason to fight in it, but also because the main reason we did indeed join the war was because we merely got caught in a sort of crossfire. The harsh environments and terms that both American and European soldiers had to deal with one up any impulsive reason to join the first World War.
First of all, the main reason we (the United States) joined the first World War was because we lost a few lives within the crossfire between Germany and Britain. The Lusitania, British cruise/transport ship had left New York for Britain, and along the way, had been assaulted by a U-ring of German submarines. About twelve hundred people died, with about 130 of them being American (Answers.com). Seeing as the U.S’ fuse was rather short by then, we took this as the final straw. We , Americans, declared initiation into the way shortly after the upset arose from the sinking of the Lusitania. Although we had previously been racking up tension-points with Germany, if not everyone involved in the war, I don’t think this should have tipped us over the edge. Unfortunately, staying calm and passive about 130 dead Americans definitely beats joining the war and adding to the total 9 million deaths that resulted. 9 million deaths isn’t a number that just leaves your head, it’s a staggering statistic. Regardless of the fact that the 9 million is divided by every nation that fought, it’s a horrible number, which American shouldn’t have contributed to.
Not only was the determination low for our soldiers, considering there really wasn’t that much to back up our battle, but the conditions in which they
