  • On 10 June 1940, Italy declared war on France and the United Kingdom. By September 1940, the Italians had invaded France, British Somaliland and Egypt. This was followed by a hostile press campaign in Italy against Greece, accused of being a British ally. Italy's invasion of Greece, launched from Italian-controlled Albania, was a fiasco: six divisions of the Italian Army, badly organized and insufficient to manage a full-scale invasion, encountered unexpectedly tenacious resistance by the Hellenic Army and had to contend with the mountainous and muddy terrain on the Albanian-Greek border.

      There is a joke by the Greeks which says: There is an Italian division in the mountains and a scout reports that there is a Greek soldier ahead, then the captain sends a couple of soldiers to deal with it and the whole division is trembling. Then they send more soldiers. They weren't victorious and the scout announces while breathing heavily: Sir! There isnt a Greek there but TWO Greeks!

      Well, to be fair, Italy was way further behind in technologies and development compared to Germany and the Allies. Italy did switch sides after the Allies invaded them, but so did almost all other Axis nations. Also northern Italy stayed fighting along the Nazis until the end.

    Se encuentra en las montañas.

    ¿Quién me dijo que me ocupara de los soldados griegos?

    pero todavía escucha "Aire" (vete de aqui)
    de los soldados griegos
    pasa por caminos y callejones
    y salta sobre un arroyo
    el conoce su trabajo
    Ayyyy
    Se come las balas como el granizo de los soldados griegos
    Y sigue cambiando de generales para encontrar trabajo.
    Ah, Ciano, me estoy volviendo loco, Ciano
    tráeme mi ropa negra para ponerme rápido
    Ayyyyy
    El nuevo Napoleón envía
    Divisiones de gente hambrienta
    En lo alto de la montaña
    para que puedan conocer a su diablo
    y nuestro ejército captura muchos prisioneros. muchos muchos prisioneros!
    Ay
    y los pobres centauros
    Vaya, que terrible
    ayuno, demacrado
    caen al agua
    ¡Ay! Gracie, no deberías dejar que te vea, Gracie
    Porque he estado sentado sobre carbones encendidos
    Ayyyy
    Corren como locos en las rocas
    Y de nosotros y los aliados
    se comen la patada
    y sin mucha dificultad
    Hombres galantes griega entró
    A través de Kortsa
    Ayyyy
    Khaki entró en Argyrokastro
    Y la bandera griega ondea ahora
    ¡Ay! Ciano, me voy a matar, Ciano
    porque pronto también perderá Tirana
    Y los desafortunados
    les sucedió una gran calamidad
    Roma está esperando porque es la siguiente en la fila

So it would be out of character for germans to wage war on their ally, or vice versa given Turkey's economy and military were not as advanced in that time period.
