To one's knowledge, other than gaining land from Poland to expand from.Hitler wanted to take over Europe, and eventually the world if possible. He considered all others (everyone) in the world to be inferior to the Germans. He wanted to create a "Aryan" race of blond hair blue eyed human beings who all spoke German. Countries such as Czech/Slovak Hung, Poland, were mere stepping stones in his plans for New World Order.

Why did Hitler invade Sudetenland?The Sudetenland contained 3.5 million Germans who had been cut off from the rest of Germany after the creation of Czechoslovakia by the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler felt he had a legitimate claim upon the area because he saw it as German land. Also, Sudeten Germans claimed they were victimized by the Czech government and wanted home rule or union with Germany. Britain was reluctant to involve herself because she had inadequate armed forces to do so and had no treaty obligations to Czechoslovakia. After the Bad Godesberg and Munich conferences the four main European powers (Britain, France, Italy and Germany) decided, without the presence of the Czech leader, to give the Sudetenland to Hitler over a ten day period. The Czechs had little alternative but to agree to Hitler's demands, as they had few allies and a weak army. (However they did have an alliance with France which they failed to honor) By the 1st of October 1938 the Sudetenland had been fully surrendered to Hitler.

he wanted to unite under his power all peoples who spoke German to form a larger unit (the "great" German Reich); naturally it was not all that easy to include them all, such as the German speaking Swiss...

Sudetenland is the northern, southwest, and western areas of Czechoslovakia which were inhabited by German speaking population. Adolf Hitler in his drive to greater glory of Nazi Germany used this population as an excuse and eyed occupation of Sudetenland for expanding the borders. The appeasement policy of Western European nations like France and Britain encouraged Hitler and he subsequently annexed entire Czechoslovakia and started conquering more and more states in Europe.

In Sudetenland the population was German. They were not Slavs as the rest of the country was. It originally did belong to Germany. Hitler wanted them back in the original Germany to be part of his "Pure Aryan" race Third Reich. The more detailed story is in the link below.

After WWI, Germany and Austria-Hungary were all divided up into smaller countries. When Hitler rose to power, he felt like Rhineland and Sudetenland rightfully belonged to Germany, because, in a sense, they did.

While Rhineland was still under German jurisdiction, they were not permitted to have military personnel in this area. The first thing Hitler did was to reoccupy the Rhineland region. He went on to take over Austria, Czechoslovakia, and finally Poland all before the end of 1939.


Who did Hitler take over first?

The first expansion of the Third Reich under Hitler was into Austria, which was annexed without a military conflict in 1938. Then Czechoslovakia, first by taking the Sudetenland and later by invading the whole country. Hitler's first act of war was the attack on Poland in 1939.

What were some effects of appeasing Hitler after his invasion of the Rhineland?

Neville Chamberlain, British Prime Minister, decided to trust Hitler at the Munich Conference and gave in to his demands and gave him the area of Czechoslovakia called, "Sudetenland". This was called appeasement. Chamberlain went home to Britain and claimed he had regained, "peace in our time". Meanwhile, Hitler had no intentions what so ever of following through with the treaty. Five months later he invaded Czechoslovakia and annexed the rest of it, going back on his word. Chamberlain then realised that Hitler could not be trusted and the appeasement policy ended. A few months later WWII was declared afet Germany invaded Poland. These were the effects of appeasing Adolf Hitler at the Munich Conference. Appeasement emboldened Hitler.

How did Hitler use the League of Nations as an excuse to take over territory in Europe?

hitler knew after taking Rhineland by surprise, he shouldnt take Sudetenland by the same way, so he asked for a meeting with League of nations ( which the league of nation never expected from a dictator) and asked for Sudetenland, and the league gave it to him, (appeasement). PS: as far as I know hitler didnt use the league of nation for anything else other then this.
