Principles in
Foreign Policy
- Britain's primary aim
in foreign policy was
keeping the peace
- Defence of the homeland and the
empire was a key aim; the navy
played a key role in this as our
army was relattively small by
Continental standards
- Protection of routes to India was regarded
as crucial as it was 'the brightest jewel in the
Empire's Crown'. 1/3rd of the British army
was stationed there. There were two routes
to be protected: via the Cape of South Africa
and then via the Suez Canal in Egypt (built in
1869)
- The concept of the Balance of Power in Europe
was also crucial as Britain wanted to remain the
most powerful. The Concert of Europe (European
powers cooperating through diplomatic means)
was relatively successful in preventing wars.
