Kaiser Wilhelm II attempted to gain the alliance of Great Britain before the Great War broke out, but had a peculiar way of going about it. He created trouble for Britain to show how nice it would be if such trouble was unnecessary. He even build a massive fleet to threaten Britain. Unsurprisingly, it didn't work, and he ended up pushing the British into alliance with France and Russia. What if he got some good advisers who knew what they were doing and did a good job of securing this alliance? The POD can be pre-1900, but the post-1900 forum seemed appropriate because it is about WW1. Would WW1 have broken out if he had secured the alliance? Would it have been otherwise unchanged, except for Britain being on the other side? Was the alliance even possible?
