Best Answer

The official term is 'militarism' and it occurred because of a massive rivalry between the rulers of Britain and Germany. King George V and Kaiser Wilhelm didn't exactly get along and they became very competitive in a number of areas to do with their countries: naval, economic and colonial rivalries to be precise. This is one of the main slower causes of World War One.
