sep 30, 1938 - Munich Conference
Description:
The Munich Conference, held in September 1938, was a meeting attended by Germany, Italy, Britain, and France, where British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain agreed to allow Nazi Germany to annex the Sudetenland, a German-speaking region of Czechoslovakia, in an attempt to appease Adolf Hitler. This agreement is famously criticized as a failed act of appeasement toward Nazi aggression, which emboldened Hitler and preceded the outbreak of World War II.
