After Germany invaded Poland, Britain and France declared war on Germany, starting the Second World War. No much happened for a bit after that, so it was called the Phoney War in Britain. But then Germany invaded France, and Belgium and the Netherlands as well, comprehensively defeating Britain and France, leading to the withdrawal and evacuation at Dunkirk. At this point Germany had basically complete control of mainland Europe, and Britain, which refused to surrender, was the natural next target for Hitler. The Germans knew that if the Royal Air Force was at full strength, it would be able to easily prevent the German invasion. So, the German Luftwaffe set about to cripple the RAF, attacking the Air bases and trying to destroy the British planes. At this point, the Battle of Britain, between the RAF and the Luftwaffe, had begun.
