The Second Italo-Ethiopian War: Italy's Colonial Ambitions (1935-1936)

From October 1935 to May 1936, Italy, under Mussolini's ambition for a colonial empire, invaded Ethiopia. The Ethiopian forces, armed with traditional weapons such as swords and spears, faced off against the Italians' advanced technology, including planes, tanks, and guns. Despite fierce resistance, the Italians conquered Ethiopia in May 1936. The conflict highlighted the inability of the League of Nations to effectively respond to aggression, raising questions about international diplomacy and the protection of sovereign nations.
