Answer 1

The correct option is A 1,2,3

Germany annexed Austria in 1938. In September 1939, it invaded Poland, since Hitler preferred territorial expansion as a solution to the economic crisis in Germany. This drew the attention of France and England, leading to the start of the Second World War. In September 1940, Germany signed the Tripartite Pact with Italy and Japan.
