You need to be more specific on this question. i assume ur talking about World War 2...but it could be World War 1. Well if u r talking about WW 2 then Italy was part of the axis and allied with Hitler. So....they were the enemy of the united states and Britain and it was invaded from the newly conquered North Africa.
