Introduction

Women played many diverse roles throughout the World War II had a big impact not only here in the United States but throughout the Allied and Axis countries. Appeasement can be explained as peace through negotiations. Neville Chamberlain introduced the policy of negotiating with Hitler which can help to raise his power to gain land such as Czechoslovakia. This happened before the Second World War outbreak. Germany invaded by Poland and Britain which finally declared war on Germany. Appeasement in simple term can be defined as a diplomatic policy used in order to deal with a tyrant. Like many countries during World War 2 gave their land to Hitler so as to be spared by the resulting conflicts. Hitler wanted to make Germany a great power. He adopted such foreign policies so as to strengthen the armed forces. It was through the treaty of Versailles. When Hitler became the Chancellor of Germany, he secretly started building Germany's weapons and arms. The army for the war increased. Britain and France were very much aware of Hitler's actions, and they were also concerned about the rise of communism. They were of the view that if this become stronger this might help to prevent communism in West.

Role of Women in World War II

By late 1944, as the Allies pushed into Nazi-occupied Europe, the number of women working full time in Canada's labor force was twice what it had been at the outbreak of the war. Close to 1.2 million women employed full-time by war's end (out of a population of less than 12 million nationwide), not counting part-time workers and farmers. "The war made a huge difference in people's expectations of what women could do," said, McCabe. "It was a significant step in a long process that still goes on today (Mulligan, pp.1044)." Martha, the daughter of a German tailor investigated for having Nazi sympathies, has to deal with prejudice. Margaret, the mother of two boys (one enlisted, the other a left-leaning objector), lives in the midst of two competing ideologies. Catherine is raising a daughter while her husband is fighting in war-torn France. Janet, a highly organizational worker, earn the scorn of those around her, while Eve, a young schoolteacher, and contends with the emotions of seeing her young students lie about their age in order to enlist.
