The History of the Italian Army in the Spanish Civil War
The record of the Italian army in the Spanish Civil War is pretty mixed. They took Santander in the north, but also were responsible for one of the few times that the republican army was able to execute a meaningful offensive blow and like take significant territory. And then hilariously goes into Greece, gets his ass kicked out of Greece, has part of Albania taken from him by the Greeks. I mean, that is a big what if what if it would have fucking Mussolini doesn't shoot his wad there. But they were always the weakest link in that chain. Because you are what you think you are.
