Well, it was Germany and Poland who were the first to fight in it, but it was really four countries that went to war at the same time. Britain, France, Germany, and Poland were the four.
To my knowledge he never did. It was war by default when he invaded Poland on the 1st of September 1939. The British declared war on Germany on the 3rd of September 1939. Thereafter the German propaganda machine always maintained that Britain had started the war by its declaration. This back-fired badly some time into the war when the Germans spoke of the war as having started on the 1st of September 1939.
Britain and France declared war on Germany soon after September 1, 1939, after Germany attacked Poland for the first time, marking the beginning(?)of the Holocaust.
Belgium was invaded by Germany on 4 August 1914, despite the fact that its neutrality was guaranteed by Britain, France and Germany. Since 1906 Germany had only one plan (the Schlieffen Plan) for a future war with France and that involved marching through Belgium. Incidentally, the original version of the plan involved marching through the Netherlands, too, but it was revised after Schlieffen's retirement.

Relations between Britain and Germany grew worse from 1900-1904 because at the time both were trying to colonize countries in Africa. Britain were building up their navy and Germany viewed this as a threat so they did the same.
In World War 2 Germany had already defeated France when they declared war on Russia. At the time that Germany invaded Russia, Britain was the only major power at war with Germany and Britain didn't have the resources to mount an attack against mainland Europe. Germany was unable to attack England across the channel so Hitler decided to divert his attention to Russia before Stalin made his military forces any stronger.
Alongside France, Britain gave Germany a time limit to stop their invasion, when no reply was received they declared war on Germany.
