Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare violated U.S. claims of freedom of the seas, sinking American merchant ships and killing U.S. citizens. This, combined with the Zimmermann Telegram, pushed the U.S. to enter WWI. Impressment was a cause of the War of 1812, not WWI. U.S. cities were not directly threatened, and a German invasion of Latin America was not an actual imminent threat.
