Great Britain surrenders in 1916?

I just got a "Great Britain surrenders" without warning. Is it because it couldn't pay upkeep?
I actually have no clue why it'd surrender otherwhise, didn't lose any city and was faring ok so far (just took brussels back).

Is there somewhere we can see the status of your nation so that it can be avoided.

Also maybe give a bit more morale to the allies so they do not surrender without losing at least a city?

Nations surrender when their national morale reaches zero. It's vital to keep an eye on national morale.

Britain, with its dependence on convoys, is particularly vulnerable to upkeep problems. When a convoy arrives, you suddenly have a big influx of cash, but if you spend it all buying new units, your domestic income isn't enough to pay for the upkeep. With Britain, keep an eye on the management panel, which shows your your economic situation at a glance. If you're upkeep exceeds your domestic production, be sure to keep PP reserves to supply your armies.

Other nations are easier to manage because income and expense tend to reach a more natural equilibrium.

When you first went into deficit, you should have received a message about rationing in the UK. That message warns you that sufficient provision must be made for the army to maintain their morale. That message isn't just chrome, it really matters! [:)]

First game as the Entent I had British morale down to 8% before the end.

Mainly due to economic mismanagement.
