Britain was one of the only original allied forces, if not THE only, to withstand conquering by Nazi Germany. However, this didn't mean that Britain escaped unscathed, as is war. Nazi Germany attacked Britain's suburbs almost nightly with air raids, as the allied powers did to the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, and Poland. This is why Britain suffered so much during and after WWII.
Poland. Germany had previously agreed in the Munich Agreement that if they were allowed to annex Sudetenland of Czechoslovakia they would not invade anywhere else. The Agreement was signed by Germany, Italy, Britain and France. Italy was allied with Germany so Britain and France declared war when Hitler invaded Poland in direct violation of the agreement.
Negotiations for an alliance between Britain and Germany broke down in 1897, mainly because Britain wanted Germany only as a junior partner. Soon afterwards, Germany embarked on a huge naval building campaign. As Germany had only a small overseas empire at the time analysts in Britain concluded that the programme was directed against Britain. The result was a naval arms race - and much resentment. In WW1, however, Germany made very little use of its surface ships as it feared they would be sunk by the British navy. However, German submarines proved relatively successful and at one point in WW1 (1916) food stocks in Britain were down to about six weeks' supply. (At the time Britain produced only about 40% of its own food and the rest had to be imported).
The Allies of Belgium are basically France & Britain. Because the German attack comes through Belgium, Britain acts to defend Belgiums neutrality. There is much conflict around Ypres as well as elsewhere in Belgium & France.
