England imposes a blockade on Germany in the Atlantic in 1915
US trade with Germany effectively ends
But skyrockets with France and England (from 824 million in 1914 to 3.2 billion in 1916)
And US industry starts to boom
Out of desperation, Germany begins to attack English merchant ships, which occasionally carry Americans
Like the Lusitania in 1915, and the Sussex in 1916

Wilson’s Response:
(to Germany) “Don’t do it again”
But also:
(to Americans) “Don’t sail on these ships. There is a war going on, after all…”

Despite these attempts to keep the US out of the war,
the government very quietly begins to build the US Army and Navy
And create systems for military training
And we invade Mexico in 1916 for practice, but that’s a different story

"As the work increased and the probability that this country would be drawn into the war became more certain, the department encouraged the organization of various local volunteer citizens' committees for the purpose of being on the lookout for disloyal or enemy activities and the presentation of such matters to the proper officials. These volunteer associations have rendered very great assistance. One of them in particular, which is nation-wide in scope and which is known as The American Protective League, has proven to be invaluable…”
