In 1938, Hitler ordered the German army into Austria. Later that same year, thousands of Jewish shops and hundreds of Synagogues are burned down. In 1939, Germany invades Czechoslovakia. On September 1, Germany attacks Poland. France and The UK declare war on Germany two days later, and the war in Europe begins.
Appeasement, particularly by Britain and France towards Nazi Germany in the 1930s, allowed Hitler to expand German territory and military power unchecked. The Munich Agreement of 1938, which permitted the annexation of the Sudetenland, exemplified this policy, as Western powers believed it would prevent a larger conflict. However, this strategy emboldened Hitler, leading to further aggression, including the invasion of Poland in 1939, which ultimately triggered World War II. The failure to confront fascist expansionism highlighted the inadequacies of appeasement and its catastrophic consequences.

The appeasement that gave Britain time was primarily the Munich Agreement of 1938, wherein Britain and France allowed Nazi Germany to annex the Sudetenland, a region of Czechoslovakia. This decision was made in hopes of avoiding war and buying time for Britain to rearm and strengthen its military capabilities. However, this policy ultimately failed to prevent further aggression from Hitler and contributed to the outbreak of World War II.
As Hitler's birthplace, Austria was the first country which he absorbed into the Nazi fold after becaming Chancellor of Germany, and it was an Axis country during the war, but it was nothing more than a puppet of Germany. Austria was annexed by Germany in 1938, and the territory and its people were considered to be German for the duration of the war.
Munich Pact
Munich Pact
The first German act of aggression towards the people of the Sudetenland, a region inhabited by ethnic Germans in Czechoslovakia, occurred in 1938 when Adolf Hitler demanded the region's annexation. This demand was backed by propaganda and support from local German nationalists, leading to escalating tensions. The Munich Agreement, signed by Germany, Britain, France, and Italy, allowed Germany to annex the Sudetenland without military intervention, effectively marking the beginning of German aggression in the lead-up to World War II. This act set a precedent for further territorial expansion and aggression by Nazi Germany.
