Neville Chamberlain sought the Munich Agreement in 1938 to avoid war and maintain peace in Europe following the aggressive expansion of Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler. He believed that conceding to some of Hitler's demands, particularly regarding the Sudetenland, would satisfy the dictator and prevent further conflict. Chamberlain's policy of appeasement was driven by a desire to protect Britain and its allies, as well as a belief in the effectiveness of diplomacy at that time. Ultimately, this approach failed, as it did not stop Hitler's expansionist ambitions.
