French politician (1884-1970)
Édouard Daladier was a French politician who served as Prime Minister during the critical years leading up to World War II, most notably signing the Munich Agreement in 1938 that allowed Nazi Germany to annex part of Czechoslovakia. He remains a historically significant but controversial figure because his diplomatic decisions at Munich have been debated as either a necessary compromise or a catastrophic failure to stop Hitler's expansion.
