Answer 1

The two terms that best describe the role of the United States favored by most Americans as World War I broke out were neutrality and isolationism. When WW I broke out most Americans thought that the U.S. should stay out of the conflict, neutral. Due to Europe's distance to the U.S., most Americans believed in isolationism. "Thank God for the Atlantic Ocean", was often heard. President Wilson declared that the United States would stay neutral.
