Do you mean you signed a Mutual Protection Pact with England and France?

If this is the case, England and France would only be required to declare war on Germany if German units attacked your units or cities within your own cultural boundaries. If you want to trigger allied Mutual Protection Pacts on a separate island/continent, capture or found a city there and allow the Germans to make an attack within the borders.

Zwingli is correct, a MPP does not come into effect by a declaration of war only, you normally have to be attacked inside your owne borders, but it also comes into effect if the enemy ends a turn with a unit inside your borders. So if Germany had a ship inside your borders, the MPP should be triggered.
