Anschluss with Austria was when Germany annexed Austria. Austria had asked to come a part of Germany after World War 1. The Sudetenland was an area that had a lot of German speaking people in it. Hitler wanted to reunite the people with Germany and was also lost from the Treaty of Versailles because Hitler could take Sudentenland but no where else.Sudentenland was part of Czeckoslovakia. The Policy of Appeasement came after this. Winston Churchill thought that they should not have let Hitler get this land. The Night of the Broken Glass was when Hitler sent people out to destroy the Jews will. The people would break glass on Jewish churches. The Soviet-German non-aggression Pact-- the Soviet Union and Hitler agreed not to fight each other and also agreed to invade Poland from both sides. They would also trade with each other. The Soviet Union would trade raw materials to Germany in exchange for money and weapons.
There would be air and tank attacks in Blitzkreig and then behind the tanks there would be infantry that would eventually encircle or capture the enemy. The goal of this type of warfare was to achieve victory as quickly as possible.
