Question 10 • RMA FL-2100310-United States History Semester 1

How did the diversity of the US population discourage US leaders from entering World War I?

Answer
A
The population included only a few immigrants from both sides of the conflict.
B
The population did not have enough skilled workers to support a war effort.
C
The population included many immigrants from both sides of the conflict.
D
The population consisted of immigrants from Latin America who were not interested in the European conflict.

Explanation

Many Americans had immigrated from countries on opposing sides of World War I, including Germany and nations allied with Britain and France. Entering the war could divide the US population and create domestic tensions, so leaders were cautious about joining. Choice C, that the population included many immigrants from both sides of the conflict, captures this concern.
