Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -At Munich, Chamberlain got an international agreement that Hitler should have the Sudetenland in exchange for Germany making no further demands for land in Europe. Chamberlain said it was ‘Peace for our time’. Hitler said he had ‘No more territorial demands to make in Europe.

Detailed explanation-2: -Appeasement reached its climax in September 1938 with the Munich Agreement. Chamberlain hoped to avoid a war over Czechoslovakia by conceding to Adolf Hitler’s demands. The Agreement allowed Nazi Germany to annex the Sudetenland, the German-speaking parts of Czechoslovakia.

Detailed explanation-3: -The policy of appeasement is seen by some to be a primary cause of World War II. This view holds that British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and other Western leaders enabled Adolf Hitler to become increasingly aggressive in his foreign policies due to their willingness to appease Nazi Germany.

Detailed explanation-4: -In 1938, Chamberlain and the French prime minister met with Hitler and Italy’s leader Benito Mussolini. They signed the Munich Agreement, which allowed Germany to annex, or take, the Sudetenland, a part of Czechoslovakia. Chamberlain’s appeasement of Hitler would lose him significant political support as a result.

Detailed explanation-5: -No action was taken to check the German rearmament. German occupation of Austria and Czechoslovakia met no resistance whatsoever from either Britain or France. There was only half-hearted British action against the Italian invasion of Abyssinia (Ethiopia). More items
