30.9. 1938 Europe's leaders sign Munich Agreement, ceding a region of Czechoslovakia to appease Hitler. The desperate attempt to avoid war fails. Within a year, Hitler’s aggressive expansion plunges Europe into another devastating conflict #OTD#History

Europe's leaders sign Munich Agreement, 
ceding a region of Czechoslovakia to 
appease Hitler. On that same day British 
Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, upon 
landing at Heston Aerodrome, presents
the peace treaty between Britain and 
Germany that Hitler had signed at the 
conference. Chamberlain promised British
Public "peace in our time". However, the 
desperate attempt to avoid war fails. Within 
a year, Hitler's aggressive expansion 
plunges Europe into another devastating 
conflict. - Appeasing dictators is doomed
to fail!
