Schlieffen was a German general who wanted to avoid waging a war from two fronts (France to the west and Russia to the east) so because he believed that Russia would take a long time to prepare he went up north through Belgium to invade France. He wanted to quickly attack France -with the element of surprise- and then move his attention to Russia and overtake them and thus be able to deal with them individually. What ended up happening was that by going through Belgium it prompted Britain into the war on the side of the French and the Russians mobilized quicker then expected plus the Belgians put up a fight.

Part of the plan was to have the ability to shift troops via railways from the Eastern and Western fronts.
