The allies in 1938 agreed to give the sudentendland to Germany.
Ok...
Heres an excert outta UR belief above. And heres a quote from a major history source called a college textbook:
Adolf Hitler, head of the Nazi Party, who tried to overthrow the government at a previous time, 1923, and was subseqently jailed for it, where he wrote Mein Kamph, became the leader of Germany in 1933. He abolished democracy in that country, espousing a radical racially motivated revision of the world order, and soon began a massive rearming campaign. This worried France and the United Kingdom, who had lost much in the previous war, as well as Italy, which saw its territorial ambitions threatened by those of Germany. To secure its alliance, the French allowed Italy a free hand in Ethiopia, which Italy desired to conquer. The situation was aggravated in early 1935 when the Saarland was legally reunited with Germany and Hitler repudiated the Treaty of Versailles, speeding up remilitarizati
on and introducing conscription. The Soviet Union, concerned due to Germany's goals of capturing vast areas of eastern Europe, concluded a treaty of mutual assistance with France.
Before taking effect though, the Franco-Soviet pact was required to go through the bureaucracy of the League of Nations, rendering it essentially useless and in June 1935, the United Kingdom made an independent naval agreement with Germany easing prior restrictions. The United States, concerned with events in Europe and Asia, passed the Neutrality Act in August 1938. In October of the same year, Italy invaded Ethiopia, with Germany the only major European nation supporting her invasion.
Italy then revoked objections to Germany's goal of making Austria a satellite state.So u see. The ALLIES never gave Germany shit. Seeing as how ITALY was and AXIS power.
Now, as for the war didn't start in 1938 (this is from the same textbook:
The starting date of the war is generally held to be November 1938 with the subsequent declarations of war on Germany by the United Kingdom, France and the British Dominions. Many others believe that war was declared as a result of Germany's Invasion of Poland in September 1939. This has been discredited by the fact that the first declaration of war was by the British dominions in 1938. However, as a result of other events, many belligerents entered the war before or after this date, during a period which spanned from 1938 to 1941. Amongst these main events are the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, the start of Operation Barbarossa and the attack on Pearl Harbor and British and Netherlands colonies in South East Asia.
I can even go on and give you this bit of information:
President Roosevelt appealed for peace directly to Hitler before war
was declared. Hitler objects.
Department of State PRESS RELEASES, October 1, 1938, Vol. XIX, p
219.
Now why would someone ask for peace before major countries declare war on them? Because he knew countries were fed up and gettin ready 2.
I have educated myself. In fact, I got a BS in History jst 2 prove it. Im workin on my Associates but im only yr 3 rt now. Maybe theres somethin im mistaken on. But all the above came from my textbook, as it is written.
