did not have the power to fight Germany
Britain followed a policy of appeasement towards Hitler's Germany primarily to avoid another devastating conflict like World War I. British leaders believed that satisfying some of Hitler's territorial ambitions would maintain peace in Europe and allow Britain to rearm effectively. Additionally, there was a widespread sentiment among the British public and political leaders that the Treaty of Versailles had been too harsh on Germany, leading them to view appeasement as a means to rectify past injustices. Ultimately, this policy was based on a miscalculation of Hitler's ambitions and the belief that he could be negotiated with.

why did France and britiain choose the policy of appeasement
Germany went from being a defeated country at the end of WW II, in 1918, to overrunning all of continental Europe in 1939, which was just 21 years later. The policy of appeasement, which was intended to make Germany happy so that it would not go to war, instead allowed Germany the opportunity to rebuild its military and to make all the necessary preparations for war, and to become the most powerful nation in Europe. So appeasement was a horribly foolish policy, as it turned out.
The United States initially had to follow a policy of appeasement towards Germany. This policy was directly related to the treaty of Versailles.

Prior to World War II, the diplomatic policy of appeasement was in fact an effective way to avoid general war. For much of the 1930s, appeasement succeeded in holding off any conflict comparable to World War I. Whether this policy was wise is another question, for some have argued that a harder stance towards Germany in the 1930s could have led to a much quicker, less expansive war.
