The Munich Conference of 1938 was a meeting between representatives of Britain, France, Germany, and Italy. The meeting was called to address the demands of Adolf Hitler, who wanted to take over the Sudetenland, a region of Czechoslovakia with a large ethnic German population. The British and French representatives agreed to allow Hitler to take over the Sudetenland in exchange for his promise not to make any further territorial demands in Europe. This policy of appeasement ultimately failed, as Hitler continued to expand his territory, leading to the outbreak of World War II.
