U.S. Allies & U.S. Enemies

The Great War originated in Europe with two major sides fighting, the Allies and the Central Powers. At the beginning, the United States remained neutral, avoiding the central conflict and providing only support for the countries involved. Closing into the conclusion, however, the United States forfeited its neutral state and entered the war. For its democratic values and national security, the United States voluntarily fought along side the Allies.
