How did countries use appeasement when dealing with Germany?

Countries, particularly Britain and France, employed appeasement towards Germany in the 1930s by allowing Adolf Hitler to expand German territory and violate the Treaty of Versailles without facing significant opposition. This strategy was exemplified by the Munich Agreement of 1938, where they permitted the annexation of the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia in hopes of preventing another large-scale conflict. The belief was that satisfying some of Germany's demands would maintain peace in Europe, but ultimately, this approach failed, emboldening Hitler and leading to World War II.
