power with the allies
Appeasement was a foreign policy strategy that the British thought of, and was agreed upon by both Britain and France. Appeasement did not work, since Hitler ended up trying to annex Poland, which lead to a declaration of war.
British minister who, along with French primier Edouard Daladier, practiced a policy of appeasement toward Hitler
Appeasement's the word you're looking for.
The result of the Munich Conference on the brink of WW2 was that British and French leaders chose appeasement and allowed Hitler to annex territory.
British policy toward Germany during the 1930s
Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain foolishly believed that Adolf Hitler would leave Britain alone if they signed a non-aggression pact. He was trying to save British lives. The French thought the same thing. Hitler's Anschluß referendum showed Hitler that Brits and French were "wimps" trying to appease Hitler. This was to the demise of the Brits and French after they signed the phony appeasement documents.
The policy of appeasement was used by the French and British to appease Hitler in the hopes that Hitler would leave their nations alone. The "appeasement camp" thought that if Hitler was given what he wanted he would be satisfied. They did not understand Hitler and his agendas. They Brits and French were made to look like fools when they found out Hitler had already taken the the Sudetenland at the time of the Munich Conference and signing of the pact that allowed Hitler to have the Sudetenland within Czechoslovakia. The policy appeasement is as foolish as giving your lunch to the school bully when he will only come back the next day.
