Italy in WW1

Triple Alliance

Stance of neutrality

- No defending own powers

Bold move of Italy

Why was Italy so dissatified?

Hoping for part for Germany, Austrian-Hungarian empire & Ottoman empire

 - Only part of Austrian-Hungarian empire 

           -  Triest, southen Tirol, northern Dalmatia, etc.

Italy made boldest move of the war:

- Shifting allies

        - Decreasing reputation as political power -> no one could trust Italy

 

Italy only getting "left over" territory made the public very dissatisfied, and started to blame this on the government

Italy's bold move

As war progressed:

- Italy decided help with the fighting

- The Triple Alliance 

- The Triple Entente

- Declared war against the central powers

Why?

Why did Italy do this?

Reason 1.

Britain promised Italy

 - Better territory

 - Monetarily gains

                     - If they joined the allies and                          won

If Italy stayed neutral with the Central Powers

 - Not much territory

 - No monetarily at all

Why did Italy do this?

Reason 2.

Italy had to fight with Austria-Hungary

 - a previous rival

 - German had somehow get them together

So when Italy had the change to leave, they took it.

Allies won, but Italy dissatisfied

Italy and Allies Powers victorious
