Answer 1

The correct answer is A. Despite the policies of appeasement carried out by France and Great Britain (motivated largely by the fear of the growth of Hitler's power in Europe), Germany continued with its expansionist policies that led to the beginning of the Second World War. In 1939 he invaded the rest of Czechoslovakia and, in September of the same year, he did the same with Poland, beginning the bloodiest war in the history of mankind.
