Answer 1

Answer:

Following Germany's unprovoked attack on Belgium in violation of Belgian neutrality, Great Britain declared war on Germany is a TRUE statement.

Explanation:

• The treaty that was signed between Great Britain, Germany and a few other nations regarding the neutrality of Belgium in 1839 was breached by Germany in 1914 by invading Belgium through an unprovoked and spontaneous military action.
• The German Confederation despite being a signatory to the treaty that ensured the protection of Belgium's neutrality attacked Belgium. This action was not welcomed by Great Britain and was responded to by calling a war against Germany.
