Feel free to challenge
Edward Grey, 1st Viscount Grey of Fallodon
-When the Liberals returned to power in 1905, Grey became Foreign Secretary, a position in which he would serve for eleven years - the longest continuous holder of the office.
"He is probably best remembered for a remark he supposedly made to a friend one evening just before the outbreak of the First World War, as he watched the lights being lit on the street below his office: "The lamps are going out all over Europe; we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime."
In short, he declared war on Germany in WWI..
I got more..keep these challenges coming
PS: Now you guys know who I'm named after
