Hello, I thank you for listening to a History of World War II podcast, episode 12, appeasement.

So first of all, I'd like to thank everyone who's either sent me an email or who's left

a comment on the website.

Your feedback is very important to me and it helps me to make improvements, so keep

that coming.

Also those of you who've asked questions, I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

In fact, I was thinking if I could get enough questions together, say covering anything

between 1933 and 19, at the end of 1938, I could put it together and make an episode

out of it.

So just send your questions in to my email address, ray42herace.

Yahoo.com and you can also see that on the website and I'll get that out as soon as I

can.

And I'd also like to thank Richard Hughes of the UK who sent me an email correctly pointing

out that when I say England, I should be saying Britain, Great Britain or UK or United

Kingdom.

England is only a part of that, so thank you for that, Richard.

So previously in November of 1937, Hitler got together a very small select group of men

to let them know his next move that he wanted to plan on the international stage.

He was now ready to incorporate Austria and Czechoslovakia into the German Reich.

He told the men that he would be willing to go to war with Britain and France for it,

but ultimately he was hoping to incorporate it.

He was hoping to get it through diplomatic means as opposed to armed conflict.
