The leaders of the Russian army informed the czar that partially mobilizing would create confusion among the armies because the war was to be against Austria-Hungary and Germany. The czar changed his orders, ordering for a full mobilization on July 29, 1914. The Germans reacted quickly, notifying the Russians that they must stop their mobilization within 12 hours. Germany called a two-front war with France and Russia. On August 4th, Great Britain declared war on Germany for violation of the neutrality of Belgium. By August 4th, all of the great European powers were at war.
