As Germany started to build a large battlefleet to challenge British supremacy, the tension between the two countries increased too. This arms race began in the 1890s.
How did World War 1 help lead to World War 1?
Imperialism is about believing in a empire. It helped a lot. Germany was imperialistic, and actually, so was Britain. People say that WW1 was caused by Germany, but if Britain didn't have it's empire, then there wouldn't have been a war. See, Germany's leader, Kaiser Wilhem (or something like that) was realated to Queen Victoria and was invited to Britain many times in his childhood. He saw what Britain had gained from having a empire and wanted in. So, when he became leader of Germany, he started building ships to sail around the world and build Germany's empire. So, Britain really was the cause of WW1 (because of a unfortunate connection between Queen Vic and the Kaiser and what he saw when over in Britain).

How did Germany's competition to build up its navy put them into an arms race with Great Britain during World War 1?
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).
Britain and Germany compted with each other to build the strongest what?
Navy. Britain had maintained the strongest Navy in the world since the time of the Spanish Armada. This was not done for mere national prestige, it was a matter of actual survival for the island nation, which depended on imports, arriving by ship, to feed its people. Germany on the other hand had always been a land power. It had little to no navy, and less use for one. It was only when Kaiser Wilhelm II ascended to the throne and read "The Influence of Sea Power on History" by the American Mahan that Germany began building a serious navy. The fact that the only real use this Navy could ever be was to fight the British Navy, if the two nations ever went to war, was a serious destabilizing factor in Europe in the years leading up to WWI. Just another of the Kaiser's brilliant ideas.
