Hitler wanted to take the Balkans to expand the amount of area available for his invasion of the USSR in 1941. He studied past invadors like Napolean and so on, all invading through the flat lands of Poland and losing. He believed a larger area to invade would increase success plus he wanted to make it easier to bring more supplies across the USSR instead of just in Poland.
