Munich Conference

The Munich Confererence was an attempt between several great European powers to avert a war over the Sudetenland crisis of September 1938.

Involving prime minister Neville Chamberlain of the United Kingdom, premier Eduard Daladier of the French Republic, Fuehrer Adolf Hitler of the German Reich, and Benito Mussolini of [Italy]], the conference ended in failure for Chamberlain and Dalaider on September 29, 1938, when news of the assassination of Konrad Heinlein reached Hitler, prompting him to vent rage against Czechoslovakia and ordered war to begin right in front of his horrified audience. Three days later, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union declared war on Germany after Wehrmacht forces initiated Case Green, the invasion of Czechoslovakia.
