         <description><![CDATA[<div>The definition of "appeasement" is acceding to someone's demands to try to avoid conflict. Hitler took over the Sudetenland as long as he withheld insinuating more aggressive demands to Prime Minister Chamberlain. Giving into Hitler's aggressive demands was Chamberlain's attempt to get Hitler to eventually stop. Chamberlain's efforts fall short and Hitler continues to try to get what he wants in an aggressive manner. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The Battle of Stalingrad was an incredibly fatal and brutal battle. The events include air and artillery attacks that left the city in shambles. The Germans tried their best to wipe out as many Soviets as they could but the Soviets fought back as hard as they could because Stalin would do all that it takes to defend the city named after him. Hitler was persistent, he would not let them surrender. Somewhere between 500,00 and 1 million Soviet soldiers died while trying to defend Stalingrad. The Axis lost as many as 500,00 soldiers as well. This loss was awful to Hitler. This was a turning point in the war because Germany's seemingly unbeatable military was retreating. </div>]]></description>
