The treaty included providions to divide Europe into German and Soviet areas of influence and led directly to the invasion of Poland by Germany (1 September 1939) and the Soviet Union (17 September 1939).
World War Two started when Nazi Germany(who was led by Adolf Hitler) invaded Poland on September 1, 1939.
The Soviet Union signed the non-aggression act called the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact in Moscow on August 23, 1939. Officially the Treaty of Non-Aggression between Germany and the Soviet Union, it effectively allowed Germany and the USSR to divide Poland between them. It did not, however, deter Hitler from attacking the USSR, anyway, in June, 1941.

After Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain's declaration of "peace for our time" in September 1938, following the Munich Agreement and the appeasement of Adolf Hitler, tensions in Europe escalated rapidly. Hitler's continued expansionist policies led to the occupation of Czechoslovakia in March 1939 and the signing of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact with the Soviet Union in August 1939. These aggressive moves culminated in Germany's invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939, prompting Britain and France to declare war on Germany, thus marking the outbreak of World War II.
