To avoid the war Jefferson passed the Embargo act. Basically, it halted all US trade with any foreign country, and since they weren't trading with anyone America was forced to make her own products. This is what spurred industrialization.
In the US Civil War, Confederate soldiers from the South fought against Union soldiers from the North. Both sides had to resort to conscription to keep their armies at full strength. The South passed draft laws first then the North had to do the same.
When Congress voted to declare war on Germany in April 1917, the vote passed, with only 50 representatives (and 6 senators) voting against it. A few months later when Congress voted to declare war on Germany's ally Austria-Hungary, the vote passed with only one representative voting against it (and zero senators).
The Spanish-American War of 1898 was the first "Foreign" war fought on foreign soil by US forces. In 1899 veterans of that war formed the "Veterans of FOREIGN Wars" to protect themselves from political moves that would/could short change veterans and associated benefits. The first established military veterans group had been GAR (Grand Army of the Republic), which consisted of (Union) US Civil War veterans; they died out when the last Civil War (GAR member) veteran passed on. Each veterans group is normally created to protect the benefits of that particular veterans "group"; as the years go by, politicians perform budget cuts...which often effects veterans. The "American Legion" was formed by WW1 vets; AMVETs (American Veterans) was formed by WW2 vets. The most unique veterans group was the VVA (Vietnam Veterans of America); this group was (often) NOT allowed to join established veterans organizations during the 1960's; so they formed their own group in about 1978. The VVA's motto, is "they will never turn their back on another veteran."

In the 1920s many high tariff policies were passed by Presidents Wilson Harding and Coolidge to protect American businesses. A tariff taxes products from other countries. So when America put tariffs against foreign (mostly European) countries, they were mad because they couldn't export their goods to America, hence they lost money.
