Italy had wanted to expand her colonies in Africa and was probably still smarting from her defeat in Ethiopia/Abyssinia at the battle of Adwa in 1896. Italy also held territory adjoining Ethiopia, (Italian Somaliland), and was able to build up her troops there. It was probably seen as an easy conquest at the time. This is all bull crap by the way, im just trying to gain attention....
