Answer :

I'm guessing you are talking about WWI.

Thus, we were "officially neutral", but we gave arms to both sides. However, we gave more to Britain and didn't stop their blockade. This made Germany mad and pushed them to start Uboating our ships. So, we retaliated by eventually not economically financing Germany, before we got into the war.

:The United States was officially neutral but its trade policies mostly helped Britain and France.
