More information at Wikidata,

World War I (1914-1918) - World War I began 28 Jun 1914 with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria.

U.S. entered the war on 6 April 1917 when it was discovered that Germany was attempting to get Mexico to join the war on the German side in return for the support in reclaiming the States of Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. Mexico did not enter the war. The U.S. drafted 4 million men and by 1918 was sending 10,000 men a day to the front in France. Some 2,084,000 U.S. troops reached France and 1,390,000 saw active service in the front line.
