Hitler allied with Italy and Austria-Hungary primarily to strengthen Germany's position in Europe and to consolidate power among like-minded authoritarian regimes. The alliance with Italy, under Mussolini, was based on shared nationalist and fascist ideologies, while Austria-Hungary's alliance was rooted in historical ties and the desire to expand German influence. Additionally, these alliances helped Germany to isolate other powers, particularly France and Britain, as well as to secure support for territorial ambitions. Ultimately, these partnerships aimed to recreate a dominant Central European bloc under German leadership.

Hitler wanted Italy as an ally because Italy could have attacked Germany while Germany was fighting other countries. Another reason could have been because Germany didn't have many ally's. Finally because Germany wanted some control over the Meditteranean, because it would make it easier for Germany to attack other countries, and intercept enemy ships. The Main Reason why Italy was an ally was that in 1922 Italy got a Dictator " Mussolini" and Hilter was also a dictator, which made them bed mates. Hitler admired Mussolini on how he kept absolute power in Italy. ANd as they say birds of the same feathers flock together.
