Britain During WW2 & The Appeasement Policy (Summary of Sub-Standard)
Britain during the war was not very peaceful as you can see because of the appeasement policy established by Nevil Chamberlain when Germany asked to go to war with them. Isolationism was a national policy during WW2 that abstained political and economical relationships with other countries. A good example of isolationism in the U.S, was when the bombing of Peal Harbor happened. But before the appeasement policy and isolationism, their was the Battle of Britain where Britain was bombed very badly by Germany and Italy. This is a main reason why Chamberlain appeased when Germany asked them to join in the war. Also another reason is because they did not have enough resources and were not prepared for war or battle. As for the isolationism policy, after the Pearl Harbor bombing, the policy was never used again.
During WW2, appeasement was just a way of saying,"no thanks not right now". But during the war, Hitler appeased and ceased the appeasement policy by building a bigger army and go attack other countries and take land. So other countries had to step in and take action by fighting back to defeat Hitler. As you can see,

Opinion Paragraph
I believe that Neville Chamberlain made the right decision of having the appeasement policy for people because if not, Germany would have crushed Great Britain, because they were not prepared, and did not have enough supplies. Another way to prove this is by reading the artifact below that talks about how Chamberlain made the right choice to make an appeasement policy and appease Germany. In the artifact it states that, "And that was the best thing that Chamberlain did." All in all Nevil Chamberlin made the right choice of creating the appeasement policy.

When all has been said, one fact remains dominant and unchangeable When war did come a year later [in 1939] it found a country and Commonwealth wholly united within itself, convinced to the foundations of soul and conscience that every conceivable effort had been made to find the way of sparing Europe the ordeal of war, and that no alternative remained. And that was the best thing that Chamberlain did.
