Which war? We Europeans have been fighting each other for over 2000 years. It's kind of a pastime.

As this is filed under US history, we can assume it must be one of the European wars in which the USA was involved. So take your pick:

First World War (The Great War) 1914-18, US participation from 1917: The heir to the throne of the Austro-Hungarian throne was assassinated in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Austria-Hungary subsequently presented an ultimatum to Serbia that could not accept, leading those two countries to war. Russia then mobilised to support Serbia, then Gemany to support Austria, then France and Britain to support Russia.... this greatly over-simplifies the political situation in Europe in the period immediately before 1914, but you get the idea.

Second World War 1939-1945, US participation from 1941: Germany and the USSR invaded Poland, prompting Britain and France to declare war on Germany due to their comittment to defend Poland. things went downhill from there.

Kosovo war 1999: The US was involved in a NATO war against Yugoslavia to force it to withdraw from Kosovo.
