Italy first was apposed to Germany's expansion. They moved troops to the Austrian boarder and where prepared to delair war on Germany if they tried to take over Austria.
But during a confunce between the old allies of ww1, France, Britain and Italy. the 3 power fell out as Britain signed the Anglo-German Naval pact. This allowed the German Navy to expand to 1/5 of that of the British. Both allied powers didn't like this so in Revenge Italy openlly agreed to allow Germany to expand into Austria.
To hinder matters when Italy was punished by the League of Nations (like the UN) for invading abbasinia in 1936. They removed all trading rights to Italy. Only Germany ignored this. This lead to incressing freindship between Germany and Italy.
So when the Rome-Berlin axis was signed this almost succured an alliance. Not until June 1940 were they proper allies.
Italy was part of the Axis group of countries, Italy, Germany and Japan, who signed a number of agreements between 1937 and 1940.
Previous to the start of the war in Europe Italy, under Benito Mussolini, had helped the Nationalist cause in Spain alongside Germany, a proving ground for the weapons soon to be used in the rest of Europe and also invaded Albania early in 1939.
When he saw how easily Germany was defeating France and Britain in 1940 Mussolini also invaded southern France on June 10 1940 so entering the war.
they joined it because they have the qualities and so will help to bring it to an end.(im wrong,i felt idle ; p)
