[PAR] [TLE] Munich Agreement [SEP] The Munich Agreement was a settlement permitting Nazi Germany's annexation of portions of Czechoslovakia along the country's borders mainly inhabited by German speakers, for which a new territorial designation "Sudetenland" was coined.  The agreement was signed in the early hours of 30 September 1938 (but dated 29 September) after being negotiated at a conference held in Munich, Germany, among the major powers of Europe, excluding the Soviet Union.  Today, it is widely regarded as a failed act of appeasement toward Germany.  The purpose of the conference was to discuss the future of the Sudetenland in the face of ethnic demands made by Adolf Hitler.  The agreement was signed by Germany, France, the United Kingdom and Italy.  Sudetenland was of immense strategic importance to Czechoslovakia, as most of its border defenses, and banks were situated there, as well as heavy industrial districts.  Part of the borderland was occupied and annexed by Poland. [PAR] [TLE] Duff Cooper [SEP] Alfred Duff Cooper, 1st Viscount Norwich, {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (22 February 1890 – 1 January 1954), known as Duff Cooper, was a British Conservative Party politician, diplomat and author.  In the intense political debates of the late 1930s over appeasement, he first put his trust in the League of Nations, and realised that war with Germany was inevitable.  He denounced the Munich agreement of 1938 as meaningless, cowardly, and unworkable, as he resigned from the cabinet.  When Winston Churchill became prime minister in May 1940, he named Cooper as Minister of Information.  From 1941, he served in numerous minor diplomatic roles.  His most important role was representative to de Gaulle's Free France (1943–44) and ambassador to France from 1944–48.
