Rhienland
One of Hitlers aim's was to change the traty of Versaille
- Under the treaty, Germany was not allowed to let troops into the Rhineland
- However, Hitler sent his troops back into the Rhineland in 1936
- This meant he deanounced the Locarno Pact
- They were ordered by Hitler to retreat if the French army attacked
- However, Britiain was not keen to provoke Germany and France was changing govt so had domesti problems
- France was willing to act with the support of Britiain but they didn't want to act so nothing happened. Also, they had to focus of Abyssinia
- Therfore, it gave Hitler confidence the international community would not react if Hitler invaded other contries giving him confidence to invade Austria in 1938
