Italy invaded Egypt in Summer/Fall of 1940 ostensibly to gain control of the Suez Canal. But after the Italian Army encountered difficulties and delays, they scaled back their goals. It became an effort to advance into Egypt and battle any Allied forces - mainly British and French. Ultimataly, since Mussolini was under the impression Germany would invade England in the near future, his goal became to just engage British and Free French Allied forces to tie them up while Germany invaded England. Neither happened. The Italians never even reached the main British army in Egypt, and eventually over 200,000 Italian troops surrendered. And of course Hitler never was able to invade Great Britain. <> Bailey
Because Mussolini said that it was a great land for vacations and such but Italy said that it was bad so they fought for a year and Italy won and used it as a naval base

- Mussolini readied to invade Abyssinia (Ethiopia). He wanted war and glory, so Abyssinia asked the League of Nations to help. - The League attempted to reason with Mussolini but he used this time to send an army to Africa, so the league suggested a compromise to give only a part of Abyssinia to Italy. - Mussolini ignored the League, and continued to invade Abyssinia. - This resulted in the League banning weapon sales and putting sanctions on rubber and metal. - Italy conquered Abyssinia, so the League had failed
At the Border of Abyssinia and German Somali-land or maybe it was Italian Somali-land. I believe it was in the southern section of Ethiopia/Abyssinia Empire. I have provided a link for you so you can get all the details. see below

Abyssinia was changed to Ethiopia during the war II years between 1941-45, when Italy occupied and annexed Abyssinia.
1. Italy lacked a large colonial empire. 2. Under the Treaty of Versailles, Italy was granted little land. 3. Italian economy was not in a good shape, A Colonial War would distract attention from this. 4. Abyssinia could be a useful market for Italian goods and was a good place to settle Italy's surplus population. 5. Above all, Mussolini glorified War, some suggest he wanted revenge for the defeat of 1896. 6. Basically Italy wanted to be a strong empire, like the roman empire
the league talked to Mussolini, whilst he was sending troops into abyssinia. The league didn't want to loose Italy from the league of nations and decided to give part of abyssinia to Italy. However Mussolini wanted all of abyssinia to expand his empire, so instead he ignored the league and invaded abyssinia. Then the league banned weapons sales and put sanctions on rubber and metal. The abyssinian emperor Haile Selassie appealed to the league but the league did nothing, in fact they secretly agreed to give abyssinia to Italy. This was called the Hoare Laval pact.
The only country i know they invaded was Abyssinia(ethiopia) although that was pre WW2 1935-36. I never heard of any countries that Italy itself invaded although i believe i read some where they tried and failed at invading southern France and Greece
