On the first of September in 1939, Nazi Germany invaded the Poland capital, Warsaw. This would be known as the attack that ignited World War II. Earlier in the year, around March 1939, British government formed an agreement that stated they would be allies to Poland in this very event. Meanwhile, France had already been in a prior alliance with Poland.  Not long after the British formed their treaty, Germany and Italy had formed an agreement to be allies.  On the second of September in 1939, Italy proposed a peace conference that would be held between Italy, Germany, Britain, France, and Poland. Unfortunately, the efforts made for peace were not successful. French Prime Minister, Édouard Daladier, spoke and conformed France involvement. The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Neville Chamberlain, stated that it would be impossible to discuss peace while Poland’s cities were under invasion. In this same statement, he confirmed that if German forces would not withdraw from Poland, their involvement would be certain. On the third of September in 1939, Britain made an announcement at 0900 that stated, if Germany does not announce withdraw from Polish territory by 1100, they will declare a state of war with Germany. Later that day, France allowed Germany until 1700 to withdraw their forces. After Germany did not respond to either of these deadlines and all peace attempts were made, Allies to Poland had no choice but to engage in war against Germany. These events would be precursors to many other countries, including the United States, involvement in World War II.
