Why did the United States not enter the war in 1914?

When World War I began, the United States remained neutral. There are various reasons for why the United States remained neutral. One reason was that there were many Americans who came from Germany, Great Britain, and France. As a result, there were many people who did not want the United States to go to war against the country from which they had emigrated. A second reason is that we had developed a good trade with the countries of the Allied Powers and the countries of the Central Powers. We did not want to risk losing some of that trade by entering World War I.
The United States also felt that some of the issues leading to the start of World War I had little impact on the country. Many Americans viewed the conflict as a struggle between the old powers of Europe, which was of little importance to the United States.
Events occurred that eventually changed the American point of view and led to the entrance of the United States into World War I in April 1917.
