Reason why Britain went to war over Poland, and not over Czechoslovakia previous year is simple : British policy was always to stop forming of a dominant power in Europe ! No matter if that power is France, Germany, Russia or someone else, British were and are determined to keep Europe from uniting. United Europe would bring Britain in a inferior position of a backwater island. Now, in 1938 British could allow Germany to annex Austria and part of Czechoslovakia, as this would create strong power in Central Europe as a counter-balance to USSR and France. But invasion of Poland if let unopposed would make Germany dominant in all of Europe, as it would be much stronger than France (historically proven) and USSR would be isolated on the margins. British could not allow this, so there was a war.
