What major consequence resulted from the Allied policy of appeasement toward Hitler’s Germany?

💡 Explanation:

The policy of appeasement, exemplified by the Munich Agreement (1938), was intended to avoid war by conceding to Hitler's demands. However, historians widely analyze this policy as having emboldened Hitler, leading him to believe the Western powers would not offer firm resistance, thereby accelerating his aggressive foreign policy and expansionist aims, which ultimately led to the invasion of Poland and the start of World War II.
