Answer

**First Paragraph:** Hitler encouraged Sudeten German Nazis to rebel and demand unification with Germany, leading to Czech martial law and Hitler's threat of war. **Second Paragraph:** Chamberlain, without Czech consultation, agreed to cede Sudetenland areas with a German majority to Germany; Hitler later demanded all of the Sudetenland, which Britain and France conceded at the Munich Conference. **Third Paragraph:** Despite criticism of appeasement from figures like Churchill, and its evident failure after Germany seized the rest of Czechoslovakia, it initially prevailed; however, this failure led to British support for Poland against potential German aggression and the acceptance of impending war.
