Question
how was america finally brought into WWI?

Answer
Daniel,

America was finnaly bwrought into war for many reasons. But the main is the sinking of the passenger ship Lusitania. There were  American Citizens aboard that ship. It was sunk by a german submarine. The Germans said that there were weapons onboard. The American Gov't denied it. As it turns out, there was weapons onboard. But the points is, America said we would enter the war if Germany attacked us and they did. So we entered the war.

I hope this helps you.

Jesse
