Appeasement in the lead-up to World War II, particularly by Britain and France towards Nazi Germany, allowed Hitler to expand aggressively without facing immediate consequences, emboldening him to pursue further territorial ambitions. This policy ultimately failed, leading to the invasion of Poland in 1939 and the outbreak of the war. In the U.S., the initial stance of neutrality and isolationism was challenged as the threat of global conflict grew, prompting a shift towards greater involvement in European affairs. The consequences of appeasement underscored the dangers of inaction against aggression, shaping international relations for decades to come.

Appeasement was one of the main causes of WW2. It was used by Britain's to keep peace from Hitler and the Germans.

Is it World war 2 or Vietnam that had the greatest impact on America?

They both had an impact. ALL wars will influence/impact their respective generations. Naturally, some will impact more than others. The bloodier the war, the more the impact. WWII, for the US, had more casualties than Vietnam, Vietnam had more casualties than Korea, WWII had more US casualties than WWI did. The US Civil War had more casualties than any of our wars (however, we were fighting ourselves, so one must be careful when using those figures). Casualties aside, it may be said that the greatest impact about WWII was when the world entered the "atomic age", on 06 August 1945, when the atomic bomb was used to end WWII. The war however, had been won. Vietnam's impact may have been that it wasn't.
