'''Neville Chamberlain''' (March 18, 1869 – November 9, 1940) was the [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom|Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland]] from May 27, 1937 to May 10, 1940. Chamberlain belonged to and was Leader of the [[Conservative Party]]. Chamberlain, together with France's [[Edouard Daladier]], signed the [[Munich pact]] with [[Germany]]. This allowed Germany to annex the [[Sudetenland]] in exchange for a promise of peace. Chamberlain received a hero's welcome upon his return to Great Britain, declaring that the pact had provided  "peace in our time." However, he also immediately took steps to bring the British armed forces into a state of readiness for war, implying that he himself knew that war was imminent. Hitler looked upon Chamberlain as an extremely wily character, and felt that he had been cheated out of war.
