Officially, it was the German invasion of Belgium.
Britain and Belgium had been allies for around 70 years when the war began. Additionally, since France and Germany had been enemies in the past, their border was heavily fortified on both sides, but Belgium's borders were not as heavily fortified.
When the war began, Germany asked Belgium for permission to go through their territory; Belgium said no. So Germany did it anyway and conquered Belgium. When Germany launched their invasion, Britain honored their old alliance with Belgium and officially declared war.

The great depression was a major factor because Britain and France could really afford another war. Also Britain kept having hollow treaties with Germany and that made it impossible for France to declare war because if they did they would not be able to attack Germany without help from Britain. Also France had lost millions of men in world war 1 and the people of France were reluctant to fight again even though they did eventually.
