Appeasement is a diplomatic policy of meeting political demands to a possibly-aggressive power to avoid conflict.[1]
The term was used especially for the foreign policy of the British governments of Prime Ministers Ramsay MacDonald, Stanley Baldwin and Neville Chamberlain towards Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy[2] between 1935 and 1939. It was supported by most people there and in France, most notably under Édouard Daladier, because people feared another world war.
