=Zimmerman Telegram=
 * In January 1917, there was a German official, Arthur Zimmerman, who sent a telegram to the German ambassador in Mexico insisting that Mexico should agree to become an ally of Germany in a war with the United States of America. Germany Promised Mexico that it would regain its "lost territory" in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona after the war ended. Mexico declined, even so, Britain intellegence intercepted the Zimmerman Telegram. Afterwards it was leaked into the American newspapers and caused many Americans to become furious and came to the conclusion that they needed to jump into the battle and fight against Germany in war. **
