Many European nations, particularly during the 1930s, were willing to accept Germany's expansionist policies due to a combination of factors, including the desire to avoid another devastating war after World War I, the belief in the policy of appeasement, and the hope that satisfying Hitler's territorial ambitions would maintain peace in Europe. Additionally, some countries shared concerns about the spread of communism and saw Germany as a counterbalance to Soviet influence. This lack of strong resistance ultimately enabled Germany to annex territories without facing significant opposition.
The Yalta Conference, held in February 1945, resulted in key agreements among the Allied leaders—Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin—regarding the post-war reorganization of Europe. They agreed on the division of Germany into occupation zones and established the framework for the formation of the United Nations to promote peace. Additionally, Stalin committed to entering the war against Japan after Germany's defeat, and discussions were held about the future of Eastern European countries, particularly Poland. The decisions made at Yalta significantly influenced the geopolitical landscape of post-war Europe and laid the groundwork for the Cold War tensions that followed.
Germany and France were the key countries in the Moroccan Crisis of 1911. Germany challenged France's attempt to convert Morocco into a French protectorate. A war was averted over this when both nations agreed to a compromise. This entailed Germany withdrawing its objections in exchange for a small area in the French Congo.

Woodrow Wilson was dissatisfied with the Treaty of Versailles. He was an idealist and wanted to build a better and more powerful world from the ruins of the first world war. He agreed with the fact that Germany should be punished for what they did, but to an extent. He was worried that if they treated Germany too harshly, then Germany would someday get revenge. Woodrow Wilson believed that all nations should agree and cooperate to achieven world peace, which is why he set the league of nations up and wrote the 14 points.
At the Potsdam Conference in 1945, the Allied leaders—Harry S. Truman, Winston Churchill (later replaced by Clement Attlee), and Joseph Stalin—agreed on several key issues regarding post-war Europe and the administration of Germany. They decided to divide Germany into four occupation zones, managed by the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and the Soviet Union. The conference also addressed the demilitarization and democratization of Germany, the prosecution of war criminals, and the borders of Poland. Additionally, they discussed plans for the post-war order in Europe, emphasizing the need for reparations and the establishment of a framework for international cooperation.
Basically it set the plans for postwar Europe. Stalin agreed to enter the war against Japan 3 months after Victory in Europe, the big 3 agreed to a free and liberated Eastern Europe with free elections, the division of Germany and the division of Berlin, and set vague plans for the yet unformed United Nations.

The Molotov-Ribbentrop pact signed by Nazi Germany and the USSR agreed that the two nations would not attack eachother, and would divide Europe between them, with Germany taking the western half and the USSR taking the eastern half. Had Nazi Germany not violated this pact, it is likely that the outcome of WW II would have been different.
The 1945 conference, primarily the Yalta Conference, sought to establish a framework for postwar Europe by addressing the division of territories and the reorganization of political boundaries. Leaders Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Joseph Stalin discussed the need for democratic elections in Eastern European nations and the importance of the United Nations for future peacekeeping. They agreed on the division of Germany into occupation zones and the principle of free elections, although differing interpretations later led to tensions during the Cold War. Ultimately, the conference aimed to balance power and prevent future conflicts in Europe.
