Causes

Munich Agreement of September The Munich Agreement, signed by the leaders of Germany, Britain, France and Italy, agreed that the Sudetenland would be returned to Germany and that no further territorial claims would be made by Germany. Sudetainland was inhabitated by many ethnic Germans Formally part of Austria-Hungary (was broken apart after WWI). Prime example of appeasement Securing peace through negotiation rather than war. When Hitler invaded the rest of Czechoslovakia in March 1939, he broke the terms of the Munich Agreement. In May 1937, Neville Chamberlain became Prime Minister of Britain. He believed that the Treaty of Versailles had treated Germany badly and that there were a number of issues associated with the Treaty that needed to be put right. He felt that giving in to Hitler's demands would prevent another war. This policy, adopted by Chamberlain's government became known as the policy of Appeasement.

Chamberlain Chamberlain was still not prepared to take the country to war over "..a quarrel in a far-away country between people of whom we know nothing." He made a guarantee to come to Poland's aid if Hitler invaded Poland. …and guess what, Hitler did invade Poland And so was the beginning of WWII

Causes … Described

CAUSES! Unchecked military aggression (appeasement/neutrality) Imperialism Nationalism within Axis countries Failure and ineffectiveness of League of Nations Failed treaty of Versailles (too harsh)

Treaty of Versailles War Guilt Clause - Germany should accept the blame for starting World War One Reparations - Germany had to pay £6,600 million for the damage caused by the war Disarmament - Germany was only allowed to have a small army and six naval ships. No tanks, no airforce and no submarines were allowed. The Rhineland area was to be de-militarised. Territorial Clauses - Land was taken away from Germany and given to other countries. Anschluss (union with Austria) was forbidden.

Failure of Appeasement Appeasement: a diplomatic policy aimed at avoiding war by making concessions to another power “Giving in” It was used by European democracies in the 1930s who wished to avoid war with the dictatorships of Germany and Italy, bearing in mind the horrors of WWI What are examples of appeasement in the 1930s?

Insult to the people of Germany Terms were too harsh. Germany could not afford to pay the money and during the 1920s Economic depression People were dissatisfied with the new republic government and voted to power a man who promised to rip up the Treaty of Versailles …Adolf Hitler.

Failure of the League of Nations Est. in 1919 to help keep world peace. Disputes between countries settled by negotiation rather than by force. If this failed then countries would stop trading with the aggressive country and if that failed then countries would use their armies to fight.

Failure of the League Not all countries joined the League. The League had no power. The League had no army. Unable to act quickly.
