The invasion of Italy during World War II involved the Allies, primarily consisting of American, British, Canadian, and other Commonwealth forces, against Axis powers led by Nazi Germany and the Italian fascist regime. The campaign began with the Allied invasion of Sicily in July 1943, followed by landings on the Italian mainland in September 1943. The Allies aimed to weaken German forces in Southern Europe and divert resources from the Eastern Front. The invasion eventually led to the fall of Mussolini's government and significant territorial gains for the Allies.
