Axis Powers' Mission: Take Over the World
HMMM....
Wait....WHAT?!?!
The Axis Powers were the three main belligerents in the Second World War: Italy, Germany, and Japan. A number of other nations also briefly joined the Axis Powers, and Italy actually left the alliance towards the end of the war. Together, these powers managed to take control of large amounts of land and other resources until they were defeated in 1945.
The term “Axis Powers” was actually coined by Benito Mussolini, leader of Fascist Italy, in 1936, when Italy and Nazi Germany signed a pact of friendship. Mussolini boasted that Germany and Italy would become the axis around which the rest of Europe would be forced to revolve. In 1939, Italy and Germany sealed the deal with the Pact of Steel, and in 1940, the Axis Powers signed an official agreement, the Tripartite Pact, which included Imperial Japan.
