Why did Perfidious Albion join with france against Germany in 1914? Wouldn't it have made more sense to ally with Germany against their historic rival, France?
>both England and Germany are Germanic, France is latin
>both are constitutional monarchies, France is a republic
>both are protestant, France is catholic
>the English monarchy are German
>the German Kaiser was a massive Angloboo
>England always traditionally allied with Prussia
>England always traditionally allied with the Ottoman Empire against it's historic enemy Russia

Britain always backs the weaker side. If Germany had won the first world war, they would have been in a position to build a navy stronger than the Royal Navy.

The war was more against Britain than it was against France, especially when it comes to African colonies the Germans wanted.
