-It was strictly against the treaty of Versailles as well as the locarno pact
-Hitler feared that France and Britain might get involved
-Hitler had a very weak army then and his command was to draw back if the French tried to intervene
-Hitler knew he was invading not (as later claimed) protecting his frontiers
To see if the other European nations would attack him.
Lol, Mr.Wooley
Germans have occupied the Rhineland for a considerable length of time! I suspect that the question should be "When did Germany remilitarize the Rhineland?", the answer being 1936. The Rhineland had been made into a demilitarised zone after the Great War, under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, 1919. Germany had political control of this area, but was not allowed to put any troops into it. In 1936, Hitler ordered troops to re-enter the Rhineland, thus breaking the terms of the treaty.
The 1936 German occupation of the Rhineland was met by Hitler's troops. Hitler created the reoccupation of the Rhineland military forces to build up his own army.
Hitler's decision to send troops into the Rhineland
Rhineland

The Rhineland.
After the invasion, the French met with Hitler and told him that he could have the Rhineland, but to stop trying to take land.
Rhineland .
For Hitler's troops
Because he killed many people and the Rhineland did'nt know that he killed people.
In 1936, Hitler decided to take reoccupy the Rhineland. It was very risky as Germany still had a weak army. France had just signed an agreement with the USSR to protect each other against an attck from Germany. Hitler used this to claim that Germany was under threat and that he should be allowed to place troops on his own frontier. He moved his troops to the Rhineland . However, France did not act against this and Hitler took full control of the Rhineland.
