When Hitler violated the Treaty of Versailles by expanding the military and militarizing the Rhineland, Great Britain employed a policy of Apendsmen.
The Treaty of Versailles constituted the most important of the peace treaties that put an end to World War I. The Treaty brought the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers to an end.
It was signed on 28 June 1919 in Versailles, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
