A false sense of peace in our time.
Explanation:
By signing the Munich Agreement, Chamberlain was continuing his policy of appeasement which he believed would prevent a general war in Europe.
Despite signing away the Sudetenland to Hitler, Chamberlain returned a hero as the belief was that war had been avoided.
Hitler however had felt cheated out of a war at Munich. It also re-enforced his belief that the West would not intervene militarily to stop his Eastern expansion.
As a result in the spring of 1939 he invaded the rest of Czechoslovakia and the on September 1st Poland which precipitated World War 2.
