Britain entered the War of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714) primarily to prevent the unification of the Spanish and French thrones under the Bourbon family, which threatened the balance of power in Europe. British leaders feared that a strong Bourbon alliance would dominate continental politics, undermining Britain's own security and interests. Additionally, Britain aimed to protect its trade routes and colonial possessions from potential French expansion. Thus, the war was seen as a necessary measure to maintain stability and safeguard British interests.
