June 10, 1940 Mussolini had vascillated between admiration for Hitler and protesting against his decisions. Mussolini had an important position in the Munich Conference and was claimed to be a man of peace. Then Mussolini was envious of Hitler's show of power and wanted to reap part the spoils of war. When Hitler invaded Poland and then Norway and Denmark, he decided to show his strenght and join on Germany's side. Mussolini ordered his troops to join in on the invasion of France on 10 June 1940. However, due to the Army's slow responce, the Italian Army made very little advance across the Italian/French border. On September 27, 1940, The Tripartite Pact formed the alliance of Germany, Italy, and Japan and became known as the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis, or Axis alliance.
