What island did the Allies conquer that led the Italian government to negotiate peace?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sicily

Sicily and Sardinia are both part of Italy. The Allies invaded Sicily in Julyu 1943 first and began having a difficult time holding them back even with support of German units. The citizens had had enough of war and losses of their fathers and sons. Italy did not want War to come to their soil and to their precious cultural cities. War on their on soil convinced them to ask for terms of surrender.

The Allies would not allow the Italians to become allies with them. They demanded surrender. While this was discussed and some ideas of landing American paratroopers in Rome to protect their government, the fighting in Sicily continued until the end of August.

After the fall of Sicily, the British 8th Army landed troops on the 'toe' of Italy and the US 5th Army embarked for a landing site further north. Italy finally announced their surrender on 8 September, the day before the invasion force landed at Salerno.

Why didnt russia become Americas allies in 1949?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Russia did not become America's ally in 1949 because of heightened tensions and ideological differences between the two countries. The United States and Soviet Union were engaged in the Cold War, with both sides pursuing different political, economic, and military interests. This resulted in a deep divide between the two nations, making it impossible for them to become allies at that time.

'By failing to resist aggression in the 1930s the League of Nations made Hitler's work easy' How fair is this judgment on the actions of the League in the 1930s?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

first answer: It is very true. If the League of Nations had taken action like it was supposed to, threatening violent countries like Germany by stopping trade or attacking them back, then Germany would've been unable to expand and ceize land that was not theirs. But it is also true that we shouldn't blame the League of Nations for everything. Many people had already believed that Germany had been treated too poorly in the Treaty of Versailles, and thought that it was fair for Germany to get a bit more land back. Hitler also used a great deal of trickery. He told world leaders that he merely wanted to get a bit more land to help Germany a little, and didn't intend to go to a world war. He also had many promises he broke, such as promising to not attack Austria. When Hitler had wanted to capture Czechoslovakia, he didn't just rush in and attack, as Czechoslovakia was supposedly protected by France and Russia. Hitler invited the leader of France over, and told him that he wished to capture a small portion of Czechoslovakia, and that he would stop capturing land entirely. France promptly agreed, and a part of Czechoslavakia, Sudetenland, was given to Germany. Hitler promptly broke his promise of stopping his conquest for land, and captured the rest of Czechoslavakia. At this point the countries realized that Hitler was not to be trusted, but Hitler had already gained popularity with his citizens, and was gaining momentum. So though it was true that the League of Nations should have stepped in and stopped Hitler from capturing land, it is also true that Hitler had decieved a great deal of them, and managed to capture land with little force.

second more correct answer: Although much of the first answer is correct, the League of Nations had no enforcement powers, no army, no navy, etc. The League could establish moral, ethical or international legal thresh holds for actions. However it required individual nations to take action against the aggression. Britain & France were unwilling in 1936-1938 to risk war with Germany to try to prevent Hitler's aggression.

Why did the allies divert resources to North Africa before defending France?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The strategic location was not the whole of north Africa, but the Suez canal and the surrounding territory in Egypt. Had the Nazis managed to conquer the Suez canal (which they set out to do) it would have severely hampered Britain's connection with its colonies, which Britain sorely needed for troops and raw materials. Also, a German victory in Egypt might well have turned the Arab world to the side of Germany.

It may also be noted that Allied landings in Western/Northern Africa went basically unopposed. This was important as Italian diplomat Ciano predicted that this landing would inevitablely lead to a direct Allied assault on Italy.
