As a result of the Germans murdering so many innocent civilians, American support for the Allies' involvement in the war increased dramatically. Additionally it showed how important foreign investments were to the United States, as the ship carried not only innocent Americans but cargo meant for the Allies. So this event made the U.S. government want to join the war not only to protect "American freedom" but also some of their biggest markets/financial investments.]]> 2022-12-20 19:13:40 UTC https://padlet.com/chailah_richard/rij2upb19j9758sn/wish/2426096683 chailah_richard https://padlet.com/chailah_richard/rij2upb19j9758sn/wish/2426341861 German Foreign Minister Arthur Zimmerman proposed a military alliance with Mexico in this telegram, which was transmitted to Mexico in code. This, in my opinion, was important because it encouraged Americans to break ties with Germany because they believed the Germans were now unreliable because they had attempted to alli with Mexico behind their backs. The telegram's clear threats to the United States fueled anti-German sentiment in the country and persuaded Congress to declare war on Germany.]]> 2022-12-21 03:12:37 UTC https://padlet.com/chailah_richard/rij2upb19j9758sn/wish/2426341861 chailah_richard https://padlet.com/chailah_richard/rij2upb19j9758sn/wish/2426351277 CPI established to mobilize public opinion behind World War I.

Additionally, it was the first conflict in which propaganda was routinely produced by governments in an effort to influence public opinion. It took propaganda to incite enmity against the adversary, persuade the populace that the cause was just, enlist the active support and collaboration of neutral nations, and enhance the backing of allies during this and future contemporary wars.

Thus, a significant contributor to the shift in European consumption patterns both during and after the war was the introduction of processed foods into troops' diets. Europe experienced a severe food shortage as a result of the war's devastation, and they urgently needed wheat. Additionally, the US had nearly 4 million servicemen to feed. The weight of potatoes made it impractical to send them over the Atlantic Ocean, so the Administration advised Americans to eat them whenever feasible.]]> 2022-12-21 19:16:46 UTC https://padlet.com/chailah_richard/rij2upb19j9758sn/wish/2426940856 chailah_richard https://padlet.com/chailah_richard/rij2upb19j9758sn/wish/2426940937 The WIB was most important in that it made sure that the United States had the weapons needed to fight in World War I.
