Russian and American Involvement in the War

Question 5 • CA-World History, Culture, and Geography A

How did the United States’ decision to join the Allies affect World War I?

Answer
A
The decision played a minor role because the United States was unable to mobilize troops fast enough to defeat Germany.
B
The decision played a major role because the United States supplied thousands of men and supplies to aid in the Allied victory.
C
The decision played a minor role because the United States sent most of its resources to protect its border with Mexico.
D
The decision played a major role because the United States supplied millions of dollars and political pressure to aid in the Allied victory.

Explanation

Joining the Allies gave them additional troops and supplies at a crucial point in the war. U.S. forces helped strengthen the Allied effort and contributed to Germany’s defeat, so the decision played a major role. The choice about protecting the border with Mexico is incorrect because that was not the main effect of U.S. entry into the war.
