The Italian Empire 1942

This map illustrates the extent of the Italian Colonial Empire, established during the era of New Imperialism as Italy sought to assert itself alongside the great powers of Europe. Driven by both economic ambitions and national pride, the empire reflected Italy’s desire for international prestige and territorial expansion, reaching its peak under the fascist dictator Benito Mussolini (r. 1922-43)
