Neville Chamberlin was born on March 18, 1869 in Birmingham, England and died on November 9, 1840 in Heckfield, Hampshire, England. He was a British politician and served as a Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1937-1940. He is best known for signing the Munich Agreement in 1938. The Munich Agreement turned Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia over to Germany, which was signed at the Munich conference. Hitler wrote that he is done expanding and that there will be “peace in our time” to Chamberlin. However, when Hitler later violated the agreement and invaded Poland, Chamberlain declared war on Germany in September 1939. Chamberlain led Britain through the first eight months of World War II. Chamberlain lost political support and resigned in 1940. He was succeeded by Winston Churchill as prime minister.
