'''RMS ''Lusitania''''' was a [[British]] passenger liner sunk by a [[Germany|German]] [[U-boat]] ([[submarine]]) in [[World War I]] with heavy loss of life. The unprovoked attack on unarmed civilians was a major atrocity that outraged [[American]]s and ruined Germany's reputation as an honorable nation. The episode was one of the catalysts that helped push the [[U.S.]] to enter the war against Germany in 1917.
