Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -France wanted to regain its territory in the Rhineland. Great Britain sought reparations, or payments for damages, from Germany. It also wanted to prevent any future squabbles with the country in hopes for a future trade relationship.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Britain and France declared war on Germany in September 1939 in response to the invasion of Poland.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Treaty restricted the Germans’ armed forces to only 100, 000 men in the army, no submarines or aeroplanes, and only six battleships.
