Great Britain Involvement World War One

Great Britain declared war on Germany when German troops invaded Belgium. Great Britain helped Belgium because they had a treaty with them to help them when ever they got in trouble. The treaty was Great Britain's reasoning for entering the war. Winston Churchill was an inspirational leader of the British navy. The Triple Entente or Allied Powers was formed by France, Russia, The United States, Belgium, and Great Britain. Great Britain's enemies were The Triple Alliance or Central Powers with Germany, Austria, Bulgaria, and the Ottoman Empire. The main propaganda for Great Britain was posters encouraging people to join the army.

 England was an island so they used more boats and ships in war. They assassination of Franz Ferdinand caused Great Britain to go to war with Germany. Fighting for soldiers in World War One was terrible more than nine million soldiers served in the army. The war was brutal were many died from disease if not the war itself. During the war many people from the nation had to deal with lack of supplies and many women had to work. The British strategy stopped German ships from bringing supplies back to Germany and they destroyed railroads. 

              After the war caused new countries to be formed and old countries to be destroyed. As a result nine million military people died from the war. The loss of production was lost during the war because of the withdraw of men. If Great Britain would have not warn the war they would have probably not be a country today. The war was ended by the Treaty of Versailles.
