he declared interest in it and the Italian dictator Mussolini proposed a conference with Germany Britain France and Italy called the munich conference. here Britain and France agreed that the Germans could have the sudetan part of Czechoslovakia.
The Munich Pact was an attempt by the democracies to appease Hitler by ceding him the Sudetenland of Czechoslovakia, in the hopes that he would end or delay his expansion. France and Britain realized that they were unprepared to wage war. Ironically, neither was Germany, but Hitler bluffed the democracies into believing it was.

The Sudetenland - which was the German speaking section of Czechoslovakia. The agreement was signed on 29 September 1938.
Czechoslovakia, which was invaded by Germany with permission from Britain and France given at the Munich Conference. You ask which country was a "victim" of Britain's and France's willingness to appease Hitler, but you are not understanding the basic facts. The Sudetenland wanted to be part of Germany because they were Germans and they were separated from Germany after World War 1. So they were glad to get reconnected to Germany. Hitler used the issue of Sudetenland against Czechoslovakia. Czechoslovakia (including Sudetenland) were not part of Germany before WW1, but part of Austria-Hungary. When Austria-Hungary was broken-up as result of WW1, then Hitler decided to seize German-speaking Austria and then create a crisis w/ Czechoslovakia. Czechoslovakia was seen as the victim of appeasement. By loosing the Sudetenland, they lost valuable territory rich in lignite, coal. So there was a victim - Czechoslavakia.
The portion of Czechoslovakia, called the Sudetenland had a large German population. The Munich Agreement caused the annexation of this territory to the German nation.

France had a military alliance with Czechoslovakia yet signed an agreement with Hitler on 30 September 1938 in Munich which permitted Germany's annexation of Czechoslovakia's Sudetenland.

The Sudetenland - that is, the ethnic German areas of Czechoslovakia adjoining Germany (and what had previously been Austria) were in effect handed over to Germany by Britain and France. As a result Germany didn't have to fight in order to get this area.

Czechoslovakia. Hitler wanted control of Sudetenland, a region of Czechoslovakia where many Germans lived. But he went back on his promise to stop seeking more territory and soon took over all of Czechoslovakia. Then he wanted to invade Poland, but Britain and France would not allow this, so World war 2 started.
