ld to italy in africa 61 relations between italy and france deteriorated with france s refusal to accept italy s demands 61 france responded to italy s demands with threatening naval manoeuvres as a warning to italy 61 as tensions between italy and france grew hitler made a major speech on 30 january 1939 in which he promised german military support in the case of an unprovoked war against italy 62 italy entered world war ii on 10 june 1940 italy justified its intervention against greece in october 1940 on the allegation that the kingdom of greece was being used by britain against italy mussolini informed this to hitler saying greece is one of the main points of english maritime strategy in the mediterranean 63 italian soldiers in the north african campaign in 1941 italy justified its intervention against yugoslavia in april 1941 by appealing to both italian irredentist claims and the fact of albanian croatian and macedonian separatists not wishing to be part of yugoslavia 64 croatian separatism soared after the assassination of croatian political leaders in the national assembly of yugoslavia in 1928 including the death of stjepan radić and italy endorsed croatian separatist ante pavelić and his fascist ustaše movement that was based and trained in italy with the fascist regime s support prior to intervention against yugoslavia 64 history the intention of the fascist regime was to create a new roman empire in which italy would dominate the mediterranean in 1935 1936 italy invaded and annexed ethiopia and the fascist government proclaimed the creation of the italian empire 65 protests by the league of nations especially the british who had interests in that area led to no serious action although the league did try to enforce economic sanctions upon italy but to no avail the incident highlighted french and british weakness exemplified by their reluctance to alienate italy and lose her as their ally the limited actions taken by the western powers pushed mussolini s italy towards alliance with hitler s germany anyway in 1937 italy left the league of nations and joined the anti comintern pact which had been signed by germany and japan the preceding year in march april 1939 italian troops invaded and annexed albania germany and italy signed the pact of steel on may 22 italian fiat m13 40 tanks in the north african campaign in 1941 italy was ill prepared for war in spite of the fact that it had continuously been involved in conflict since 1935 first with ethiopia in 1935 1936 and then in the spanish civil war on the side of francisco franco s nationalists 66 mussolini refused to heed warnings from his minister of exchange and currency felice guarneri who said that italy s actions in ethiopia and spain meant that italy was on the verge of bankruptcy 67 by 1939 military expenditures by britain and france far exceeded what italy could afford 67 as a result of italy s economic difficulties its soldiers were poorly paid often being poorly equipped and poorly supplied and animosity arose between soldiers and class conscious officers these contributed to low morale amongst italian soldiers 68 italian battleships vittorio veneto and littorio during the war italian macchi c 200 fighter aircraft during the war by early 1940 italy was still a non belligerent and mussolini communicated to hitler that italy was not prepared to intervene soon by march 1940 mussolini decided that italy would intervene but the date was not yet chosen his senior military leadership unanimously opposed the action because italy was unprepared no raw materials had been stockpiled and the reserves it did have would soon be exhausted italy s industrial base was only one tenth of germany s and even with supplies the italian military was not organized to provide the equipment needed to fight a modern war of a long duration an ambitious rearmament program was impossible because of italy s limited reserves in gold and foreign currencies and lack of raw materials mussolini ignored the negative advice 69 by 1941 italy s attempts to run an autonomous campaign from germany s collapsed as a result of military setbacks in greece north africa and eastern africa and the country became dependent and effectively subordinate to germany after the german led invasion and occupation of yugoslavia and greece that had both been targets of italy s war aims italy was forced to accept german dominance in the two occupied countries 70 furthermore by 1941 german forces in north africa under erwin rommel effectively took charge of the military effort ousting allied forces from the italian colony of libya and german forces were stationed in sicily in that year 71 germany s insolence towards italy as an ally was demonstrated that year when italy was pressured to send 350 000 guest workers to germany who were used as forced labour 71 while hitler was disappointed with the italian military s performance he maintained overall favorable relations with italy because of his personal friendship with mussolini 72 73 on 25 july 1943 following the allied invasion of sicily king victor emmanuel iii dismissed mussolini placed him under arrest and began secret negotiations with the western allies an armistice was signed on 8 september 1943 and four days later mussolini was rescued by the germans in operation oak and placed in charge of a puppet state called the italian social republic repubblica sociale italiana rsi or repubblica di salò in northern italy in order to liberate the country from the germans and fascists italy became a co belligerent of the allies as result the country descended into the italian civil war with the italian co belligerent army and the partisans supported by the allies contended the social republic s forces and its german allies some areas in northern italy were liberated from the germans as late as may 1945 mussolini was killed by communist partisans on 28 april 1945 while trying to escape to switzerland 74 colonies and dependencies main articles italian empire and italian imperialism under fascism in europe every territory ever controlled by the italian empire at some point in time during world war ii kingdom of italy possessions colonies of italy occupied territory and protectorates the dodecanese islands were an italian dependency known as the italian islands of the aegean from 1912 to 1943 montenegro was an italian dependency from 1941 to 1943 known as the governorate of montenegro that was under the control of an italian military governor initially the italians intended that montenegro would become an independent state closely allied with italy reinforced through the strong dynastic links between italy and montenegro as queen elena of italy was a daughter of the last montenegrin king nicholas i the italian backed montenegrin nationalist sekula drljević and his followers attempted to create a montenegrin state on 12 july 1941 they proclaimed the kingdom of montenegro under the protection of italy in less than 24 hours that triggered a general uprising against the italians within three weeks the insurgents managed to capture almost all the territory of montenegro over 70 000 royal italian army troops and 20 000 of albanian and muslim irregulars were deployed to suppress the rebellion drljevic was expelled from montenegro in october 1941 montenegro then came under full direct italian control with the italian capitulation of 1943 montenegro came directly under the control of germany politically and economically dominated by italy from its creation in 1913 albania was occupied by italian military forces in 1939 as the albanian king zog l fled the country with his family the albanian parliament voted to offer the albanian throne to the king of italy resulting in a personal union between the two countries 75 76 in africa italian east africa was an italian colony existing from 1936 to 1943 prior to the invasion and annexation of ethiopia into this united colony in 1936 italy had two colonies eritrea and somalia since the 1880s libya was an italian colony existing from 1912 to 1943 the northern portion of libya was incorporated directly into italy in 1939 however the region remained united as a colony under a colonial governor japan main article empire of japan hirohito emperor of japan war justifications italian propaganda poster by gino boccasile illustrating the strength of the tripartite pact with samurai warrior sinking british and american ships and the naval ensigns of the three powers flying behind him the japanese government justified its actions by claiming that it was seeking to unite east asia under japanese leadership in a greater east asia co prosperity sphere that would free east asians from domination and rule by clients of western powers 77 japan invoked themes of pan asianism and said that the asian people needed to be free from western influence 78 the united states opposed the second sino japanese war and recognized chiang kai shek s nationalist government as the legitimate government of china as a result the united states sought to bring the japanese war effort to a halt by imposing an embargo on all trade between the united states and japan japan was dependent on the united states for 80 percent of its petroleum and as a consequence the embargo resulted in an economic and military crisis for japan as japan could not continue its war effort against china without access to petroleum 79 in order to maintain its military campaign in china with the major loss of petroleum trade with the united states japan saw the best means to secure an alternative source of petroleum in the petroleum rich and natural resources rich southeast asia 80 this threat of retaliation by japan to the total trade embargo by the united states was known by the american government including american secretary of state cordell hull who was negotiating with the japanese to avoid a war fearing that the total embargo would pre empt a japanese attack on the dutch east indies 81 japan identified the united states pacific fleet based in pearl harbor naval base as the principal threat to its designs to invade and capture southeast asia 80 thus japan initiated the attack on pearl harbor on 7 december 1941 as a means to inhibit an american response to the invasion of southeast asia and buy time to allow japan to consolidate itself with these resources to engage in a total war against the united states and force the united states to accept japan s acquisitions 80

major role in devising a strategy to keep himself on the throne 82 at its peak japan s greater east asia co prosperity sphere included manchuria inner mongolia large parts of china malaysia french indochina the dutch east indies the philippines burma a small part of india and various pacific islands in the central pacific as a result of the internal discord and economic downturn of the 1920s militaristic elements set japan on a path of expansionism as the japanese home islands lacked natural resources needed for growth japan planned to establish hegemony in asia and become self sufficient by acquiring territories with abundant natural resources japan s expansionist policies alienated it from other countries in the league of nations and by the mid 1930s brought it closer to germany and italy who had both pursued similar expansionist policies cooperation between japan and germany began with the anti comintern pact in which the two countries agreed to ally to challenge any attack by the soviet union japan entered into conflict against the chinese in 1937 the japanese invasion and occupation of parts of china resulted in numerous atrocities against civilians such as the nanjing massacre and the three alls policy the japanese also fought skirmishes with soviet mongolian forces in manchukuo in 1938 and 1939 japan sought to avoid war with the soviet union by signing a non

military leaders were divided on diplomatic relationships with germany and italy and the attitude towards the united states the imperial japanese army was in favour of war with the united states but the imperial japanese navy was generally strongly opposed when prime minister of japan general hideki tojo refused american demands that japan withdraw its military forces from china a confrontation became more likely 83 war with the united states was being discussed within the japanese government by 1940 84 commander of the combined fleet admiral isoroku yamamoto was outspoken in his opposition especially after the signing of the tripartite pact saying on 14 october 1940 to fight the united states is like fighting the whole world but it has been decided so i will fight the best i can
