3 oct. 1935 - Italian Fascists invade Ethiopia

Description:

Benito Mussolini, fascist leader of Italy, decides to invade Ethiopia because of a grudge he held against it during the late 1800's and even the 1930's, when Italy lost various wars against Ethiopian forces, preventing Italian colonization there. He also decided to invade the country to seek out valuable minerals that would help out fellow Germans and Italians alike during the Great Depression.
