6:34 The battles on the isonzo river were actually a succes for italy; austrians were about to loose trieste, the only port of the empire and the its loss was possibly the event that would have ended war for austrians, so they called german's help and destroyed italian's army at caporetto, wich is also the name of the battle. It is not because of the mountains that they were defeated, but it was because italian army was weak compared to german army. Just to give you a scale, during ww1 winning a battle could have meant to go forward for 1 km, while the 11th battle on the isonzo river brought italian soldiers 10 km forwards.

Hold on. The "Byzantines" "invaded Italy"? More like the Eastern Romans (i.e. Byzantines) wanted to retake their first capital of Rome and their lands from the Goths. Besides, many part of Italy were Greek colonies since time immemorial.

[@Iapetus7849]

Yes but actually no. Greco-Gothic wars were disastrous for the people in Italy. They lasted for 20 years and plummeted the population down to 2-3 million people (before Roman levels). Goths and Byzantines in the attempt to control or retake cities they had lost, buned them down and forced the population to migrate to the coutryside basically starting Feudalism in the peninsula. At the end of that war Italy was devastated and you could say that the "Dark Ages" started at that point (at least here)

but guanche is not related to the others. The Canary Islands were not part of Spain until the XV Century... (edit: guanche languages are dead anyways)

The Regia Marina was small yes, comparative to the British navy, but the Mediterranean was at the core of the British trade networks from Egypt, to Malta and out through Gibraltar, many people may ignore this, but the reason why Japan was so quick to conquer much of the pacific, at a rate that astonished all contemporary military theorists was because with Italy’s entrance into the war, the Royal Navy was forced to divert much of its Pacific fleet into the Mediterranean to prevent the loss of their Mediterranean trade networks. The performance of the Italian army is a different subject all together, but the sheer presence of the Regia Marina was enough to divert strategic resources away from the pacific and into the Mediterranean where Italian air bases were strategically used by the Italian Air Force and the Luftwaffe to harass British convoys. It was only thanks to the US getting involved in North Africa through Morocco and Tunisia that enough allied support was able to pour into the Mediterranean and take away the axis air superiority advantage.

Italy's biggest nerf was being the seat of the Roman Empire, thus a target and being split between/ganked by various powers for a near millennia. If Italy could have at least remained a unified state in some alternate reality they could have held the Malta, Suez, and Gibraltar and been a major naval power akin to the British empire, and have a sizable sphere of influence in Europe by controlling Mediterranean trade.

[@alexzero3736]

Italians like the Pope and Venice did call foreign armies to Italy by themselves. They just thought about putting down some Sforza, Visconty or Medici. But foreign army always tried to took something for itself.

Actually the byzantine empire was given its name by scholars nearly a century after the empire fell to the ottomans. Before that, it had always still been known as the Roman empire.
