On 4 August 1914, the United Kingdom went to war after the invasion of Belgium by the German army.
The pretext for the European powers to enter the war was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austrian-Hungarian throne, and his wife Sophie, on 28 June 1914, by a Bosnian Serb nationalist student. Austria-Hungary turned its suspicions against Serbia. They got the unconditional support of Germany, which thought that the time was right to defeat Serbia, Russia and France. Within a few days, from 25 July to 6 August, many European countries found themselves at war. Two large blocs had formed as a result of the earlier conflicts, the Triple Entente and the Triple Alliance. The Triple Entente consisted of Russia, the United Kingdom and France. It was augmented by invaded Belgium, Japan on 23 August 1914, Italy in 1915, Portugal in 1916 and the United States in 1917. The Triple Alliance was formed by Germany, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire which entered the conflict in October 1914. They were joined by Bulgaria in 1915. Winston Churchill ordered the mobilization of the Navy during the night from 1st to 2 August, just after Germany declared war on Russia. The United Kingdom mobilized 100,000 men. In 1918, the British army consisted of about 4 million of soldiers.
