What were the events surrounding the lusitania?

The RMS Lusitania was a British ocean liner that was sunk by a German U-boat on May 7, 1915, during World War I. The attack resulted in the deaths of 1,198 passengers and crew, including 128 Americans, which stirred public outrage and contributed to shifting American sentiment against Germany. The sinking was partly attributed to Germany's policy of unrestricted submarine warfare, which aimed to disrupt Allied supply lines. This incident ultimately played a role in the United States' decision to enter the war in 1917.

The "Merchants of Death" were the US weapons' suppliers of World War I and World War II that were thought by some people to have dragged the country into "a struggle that was none of its business" by unduly influencing the American decision to enter the War so that they could make a profit off of it. During both World War I and World War II, these manufacturers of armaments made enormous amounts of money by supplying the military with their weapons.
