Was the Policy of Appeasement Effective?
During the 1930s, Britain and France followed a policy of appeasement - they gave Hitler what he wanted in order to try to keep the peace and avoid war. Throughout history, many have felt appeasement was a mistake.
Write a paragraph explaining your opinion of appeasement. While writing your paragraph keep the following questions in mind:
1. Why was giving extra land to Germany dangerous?
2. Appeasement meant Britain and France gave Hitler what he wanted - why was this a bad idea
3. What did people want to avoid another war?
