The Italians invaded Abyssinia (present day Ethiopia) in Oct 1935.

This invasion was an attempt to strengthen the Kingdom of Italy before war broke in Europe. Although somewhat confusing this action should not be considered directly part of WWII. It is more of an colonial move.

Technically, he did not invade any country before Poland. German forces reoccupied the Rhineland, which was an area of Germany that was demilitarized as part of the Treaty of Versailles. Nazis also stole an election in Austria that, in essence, made it part of Germany. Neville Chamberlain helped negotiate a peace treaty between Czechoslovakia and Germany that ceded the Sudetenland to Germany, but Poland was the first nation that Hitler invaded.
