Best Answer

Abyssinia But it was invaded in 1935.

On 5 December 1934, a border incident provided justification for invading Abyssinia. Italian troops were eager to join up and fulfill Italian's destiny. After the rainy season was over, Mussolini addressed a crowd in Rome on 2 Ocoter 1935 in a firey speech. The next day, Italy invaded Abyssinia with their 100,000 infantry supported by armor, aircraft and gas attacks against a force that were largely armed with old rifles and spears. Within 4 months, Abyssinia had fallen and King Selassie had fled the country. On 9 May, Mussolini again stood on the balcony of Palazzo Venezia in Rome and proclaimed that the defeat of Adowa(1896) had been avenged.
