The first casualty of that declaration was not German—but the British ocean liner Athenia, which was sunk by a German U-30 submarine that had assumed the liner was armed and belligerent. There were more than 1,100 passengers on board, 112 of whom lost their lives. Of those, 28 were Americans, but President Roosevelt was unfazed by the tragedy, declaring that no one was to “thoughtlessly or falsely talk of America sending its armies to European fields.” The United States would remain neutral.

Answer: Czechoslovakia.

Explanation:

The Munich Conference between the leaders of Britain, France, Italy, and Germany was held on September 29-30, 1938. To obtain a promise of peace from a belligerent Hitler, they agreed to the German annexation of the Sudetenland, a border area of Czechoslovakia with an ethnic German majority.

False. Family does not perpetuate social inequality in the structural-functional approach. This is because this theory believes that all human interactions are related to how society functions.
