The declaration was declared because Germany's motive was to sink every ship entering the waters of the United Kingdom, including passenger ships and neutral American ships. Since, they believed that every ship would be carrying aid to Germany's opponents. Additionally, Germany sent a telegram to Mexico, which the US intercepted learning that Germany wanted to ally with Mexico against the United States. Though Mexico refused their request, the United States was outraged and declared war on Germany.

Although, apart from the alliance with Germany and Austria-Hungary, Italy declared neutrality at the start of the war in August 1914. This was because the alliance was defensive, and Austria-Hungary was seen as the attacker against Serbia. Italy then began secret negotiations with both sides to see which side would offer the most support for its country. The allies offered better territory from Austria-Hungary, which had been Italy's historical enemy.
