This thesis will focus on the course of British-Serbian relations from the outbreak of war in August 1914, to the arrival of the Serbian government on Corfu in February/March 1916. This is because from 1916 onwards, the Serbian government found its ability to conduct an independent foreign policy curbed by the fact that it had gone into exile (following the invasion of Serbia), and wholly dependent on the Allies for its continued existence. In contrast, during the early years of the war, the Serbian government was less reliant on the Allies for support and more resolved to pursue its national policy which created the circumstances for a number of disagreements between Britain and Serbia.
