Best Answer

The Germans did not invade England in modern times such as during the first or second World Wars. Some German tribes did invade England around the 5th century AD, ending the Roman-British culture established there by the Roman Empire.

The main reason the Germans didn't invade in the 2nd world war was the British fought and won against the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain, meaning the British had air superiority. It would be suicidal to attempt air or amphibious invasion without air superiority, therefore the Germans didn't invade.

England and France noticed but really didn't do anything about it. So Germany Attacked Czechoslovakia but still, France and England did nothing. After promising not to invade any more lands, Germany invaded Poland. That's when it all started.

Where did the Germans invade to start world war 1?

The question as posed does not really make sense. It was the Russian defense of Serbia against Austria-Hungary's invasion that started World War 1. The German declaration of war against Russia then triggered the alliance of the Triple Entente, expanding the reach of the conflict. Once the Triple Entente was involved, the Germans wanted to invade France. But in order to do so and outflank the French forces on the German/French border, they had to invade the north of France, going first through Belgium. So Belgium was the first country to be invaded.
