Late September, 1939, in Munich, Germany.
The Nazi-Soviet Non Aggression pact was signed in 1939
In August 1939.
Hitler met with chamberlain and Daladier and told them that the Sudetenland was his last desire to complete lebensraum. Of course within a year he had also invaded Czechoslovakia.
When Neville Chamberlain returned from the Munich Conference in 1938, he held up the signed agreement to the crowd that greeted him at the Heston Aerodrome and boasted that it meant "Peace for our Time." The quote has become famous for its historical irony. A year later, Britain and France were at war with Germany.
My Father ( born 1907 ) discussed this with me before his death in 1982 when I asked him what he thought of Chamberlain and the Munich Agreement. He told me that the average Brit had a very poor opinion of Mr. Chamberlain and an even lower one of Adolph Hitler ( but for different reasons ) and that they doubted there would be peace in their time believing that Hitler would strike first. Most felt that the bit of paper that Mr. Chamberlain waved when he arrived back from Munich was not " Peace in our Time, " but more " No war this Year, " and history proved them right.
the original treaty was simply a friendship treaty signed on October 25, 1936. but it was first referred to as the pact of steel in may of 1939

im pretty sure it was 1938, ---- but that was when he signed the munich pact too?
Chamberlain met Hitler twice: 1. On 22 September 1938 in Bad Godesberg (now part of Bonn). 2. On 29-30 September 1938 in Munich.
After the Munich Conference in September 1938, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain famously declared that he had secured "peace for our time." He believed that the agreement with Adolf Hitler, which allowed Nazi Germany to annex parts of Czechoslovakia, would prevent further conflict in Europe. However, this sentiment was short-lived, as World War II broke out less than a year later. Chamberlain’s statement has since been criticized as overly optimistic and naive in the face of Hitler's aggressive expansionism.
Neville Chamberlain. He has also been described as Hitler's best bodyguard, having in one way or another thwarted several well-planned attempts to assassinate him both before and after the War started.
