Would there even be a war, or something else?

It's a really interesting question. I'm from the UK and I wish we hadn't agreed it. At the time, I think we felt it would keep Germany happy and that co-operation would grow from that. In retrospect, obviously it didn't. It was a bad mistake. It also betrayed the Czechs and Slovaks who deserved better.
War was brewing in Europe as a result of the unstable shift caused by World War One and also the terrible recession worldwide. England was toying with eugenics even before Germany but the victors like to tell the story their own way and pretend they alone are innocent. Without the Munich Agreement, either England or France could have been the aggressor. We treat Germany as an evil state ruled by a madman. We are wrong. It is not so black and white as all that.
History is easy in retrospect.
