It told the Arcadian's to go on the British side if a war broke through. most Arcadian's declined this oath so they got deported to England or France. Some escaped into New France and some found protection from the Mi'kmaq.
Alsace-Lorraine was an area of France that was very prized and valuable, but was taken by Prussia (later becoming a unified Germany) during the Franco-Prussian War. France and Germany were enemies from here on until the end of World War II, and the Franco-Prussian War sent France into isolation. France wanted to take back Alsace-Lorraine eventually, which led it to align with Russia after Germany's Three Emperors' League with Russia and Austria-Hungary failed. Eventually, the UK aligned with Russia and France forming the Triple Entente and Italy aligned with Germany and Austria-Hungary forming the Triple Alliance. All Great Powers were now involved in alliances and if a war broke out (which it did), this would cause the war to be extremely deadly.
The alliances helped cause world war 1 because when Franz Ferdinand the Archduke of Austria-Hungary was assassinated along with his wife it caused Austria-Hungary to declare war on Serbia. This was what set off the alliances and all hell broke loose. Russia immediately jumped in to protect Serbia who they had an alliance with. Then Germany came in to protect Austria-Hungary and declared war first on Serbia but also on Russia and France. But to get to France it would need to go through Belgium and France and Britain declared war on Germany. The alliances were called the triple alliance and the triple entente. The triple alliance consisted of Germany, Austria and Italy. The triple entente included Britain, France and Russia.

allies that were England and France
England and France had a huge effect on World War II! When Germany broke their agreement of peace with England, by invading Poland, England and France declared war on Germany. The Germans ended up taking over France, and forcing the English to retreat across the channel, at a town called Dunkirk. When we eventually got into the war, we were allies with England and France. The English helped us push the Germans back to Berlin, and the French resisted their Nazi opposition from the inside. I think that if it wasn't for them, we would have had a harder time fighting the Germans, Japanese and Italians at once.
Hitler knew a war was about to start- he wanted to invade Poland, which was allied with France and England. He did not want to repeat World War I, where Germany was stuck fighting against France, England and Russia at the same time. So he made the non-aggression pact to keep the Soviet Union (Russia) out of the war. This was successful. Eventually Hitler broke the treaty and attacked the Soviet Union.
Russia traded sides because Germany broke their treaty agreement and invaded. They switched to the Allies.
The 13 colonies broke off from England and became the United States of America. France, which financially supported the colonies, went broke, which led to their revolution, Napoleon, and Waterloo.
