4 авг 1914 г. - Britain declares war on Germany
Описание:
→ The British cabinet was divided, and could not come to a decision. However, when Germany advanced on Belgium, the war party led by Sir Edward Grey won over the majority in the cabinet. This was a violation of Belgian neutrality as guaranteed by the Treaty of London (1839).→ Britain needed the valuable channel ports of Belgium in order to supply troops and equipment to France and could not afford to lose them to Germany.
