Neville Chamberlain became Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in May 1937, succeeding Stanley Baldwin, who resigned. Chamberlain had previously served as Chancellor of the Exchequer and was known for his leadership in domestic policy and his role in managing the economy during the Great Depression. His ascent to power was largely due to his reputation as a pragmatic politician who could promote stability and handle the challenges of the time, particularly the rising tensions in Europe. Chamberlain's focus on appeasement toward Nazi Germany would later define his premiership.
