While Great Britain in the 19th century supported primarily its colonial domains, the interest of German Empire's foreign policy was focused on the problems of Europe. British Prime minister Lord Salisbury aimed to maintain Uganda to stay aloof from German influence. On the other hand, German Foreign Office tried to gain Heligoland.

The Heligoland Treaty is an important document for understanding international relations in the 1880s and early 1890s. Its conclusion had far-reaching...
