This article explores the policy of appeasement towards Hitler's Germany, highlighting how the frustrations of Germans regarding the Treaty of Versailles allowed Hitler to rebuild the army and violate the treaty's terms. Key events include the remilitarization of the Rhineland in 1936, the unification of Germany and Austria, and the conquest of Czechoslovakia. Despite complaints from Britain and France, their inaction led to further expansionism. The concept of appeasement exemplifies the reluctance to confront aggression and its implications for future conflicts.
