The Rise and Fall of the Italian Colonial Empire
Italy also had a colonial empire. The Italian colonial empire consisted of European and African territories. Did it came any close to the Roman Empire? Italian dictator Mussolini dreamt of a rebirth of the Roman Empire. During the 19th century Italy united from Papal States to a Kingdom. This period was named Risorgimento (also known as "the Resurgence"). Italian politicians like Francesco Crispi wanted to expand and supported Italian colonization. Their first colony was at the Assab Bay area. This laid the foundation for Italian Eritrea. Two Italo-Ethiopian Wars took place. The first one was lost. The second one was won but the Italians suffered heavy cassualties. In 1901, a concession in Tientsin was ceded to the Kingdom of Italy by Imperial China. The Italians conquered Libya in 1911 during the Italo-Turkish War. During the Pacification of Libya the Italians implemented brutal policies to subdue Libyan rebellions that were led by Omar Mukhtar. In the 1930s the Italians overthrew the rule of Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie. During WW II Italy gained some territories with the help of Nazi Germany. During the Italian North Africa Campaign Italy's territories were lost. After WW 2 Italy was transformed from a kingdom into a republic. With this Italian colonialism had come to an end.
