Q
What are the key features of the remilitarisation of the Rhineland?
A
Hitler told troops to go back if they were challenged, which they weren’t.
Britain and France did nothing and Britain believed that they Hitler was ‘marching into his own backyard’. So they weren’t concerned about it.
It gave Hitler confidence to take more gambles.
