Germany declared war on France on the 3rd August 1914. Starting World War One.
WW1 was actually started July 28, 1914 when the Austria-Hungarian Empire declared war on Serbia. Various countries declared war on one another after that day.
Yes, but nothing very much happened until the declaration by Germany, then the very next day they had ignored Belgium's neutrality and invaded Belgium to try to get to Paris quickly.
