Presentation transcript:

 In 1905 GB, France, and Russia formed an alliance –They feared that Germany was growing too strong and may attack  Germany feared that they were surrounded now and they may be attacked.  So they created the Schlieffen Plan

 The Plan was for a quick strike!  Quickly move in and knock out France before Russia had time to mobilize. "Paris for lunch, dinner at St. Petersburg.“ - Kaiser Wilhelm, Germany

 They felt that if they defeated France quickly that GB and Russia would not want to continue fighting.  Germany would march through Belgium, which was neutral and make their way into France.  The plan would backfire!

 Germany did not take into account, that Belgium’s forces would actually fight.  This slowed the Germans down and caught them off guard. XAcl8D51Y&feature=relatedhttp:// XAcl8D51Y&feature=related
