Response
First Question: Why did people support appeasement?
Brief Explanations
- Option "Because they were cowards" is a simplistic and inaccurate characterization; appeasement was a policy choice, not a sign of cowardice.
- Option "Because Germany was stronger than England" is incorrect as the strength comparison was not the primary reason for appeasement.
- Option "Because nobody followed politics anyway and they didn't care" is inaccurate; public and political concern about avoiding war drove support.
- Option "Because they wanted to avoid another world war" is correct. After World War I, there was a strong desire to prevent another devastating global conflict, so appeasement was seen as a way to satisfy Germany's demands and maintain peace.
Brief Explanations
- Option "end the terms of the Treaty of Versailles so that Germany could rebuild" is incorrect; Chamberlain's policy was about territorial concessions, not ending the Treaty of Versailles.
- Option "fight Germany if Hitler invaded Poland" was part of the British guarantee to Poland later, not Chamberlain's appeasement agreement.
- Option "ally with the Soviet Union during WWII" is incorrect; Chamberlain's government initially pursued appeasement and later, the alliance with the Soviet Union came under different circumstances.
- Option "allow Hitler to take Sudentenland, Czech if he agreed to take nothing more" is correct. The Munich Agreement (part of Chamberlain's appeasement) allowed Germany to annex the Sudetenland from Czechoslovakia in exchange for Hitler's promise not to seek further territorial gains.
