Detailed explanation-1: -Instituted in the hope of avoiding war, appeasement was the name given to Britain’s policy in the 1930s of allowing Hitler to expand German territory unchecked. Most closely associated with British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, it is now widely discredited as a policy of weakness.
Detailed explanation-2: -The policy of appeasement convinced Hitler that western democracies had neither the intention nor the capacity to stand in front of Germany. He was greatly emboldened by the appeasing attitude. Eventually, the policy of appeasement drove Hitler to attack Poland on 1st Sep 1939 and with this World War II commenced.
Detailed explanation-3: -A prime example of appeasement was during the Nazi regime. Neville Chamberlain, former prime minister of Great Britain, took a policy of appeasement against Adolf Hitler. As a result, the appeasement allowed Nazi Germany to invade Czechoslovakia and Poland. This appeasement led to World War II.
