What happens
In response to the German decision to allow the return of Wilhelm II, France and Britain have declared war on Germany. The French and British cite the 'flagrant German obstinacy' in allowing a 'known war criminal' to become head of state once again as the cause of this escalation. Spokesmen of their respective governments argue that it is utterly immoral to allow the 'key instigator' of the Great War to assume the German Crown once again, and that the German government has ignored all warnings. 'We had no other choice'.
