Are Italians always this pathetic?
They lost to ethiopia so yes
>>3350536
All peoples other than the Nordics are pathetic
If you are not Nordic, you are not White and you must die.
Not in my hearts of Iron game
>>3350536
Yes.
>>3350586
And just a friendly reminder, all these battle led to this.
Reminder that airplanes had to be invented for them to properly take over Somalia from the Dervish state
>>3350610
They did have airplanes did they?
>>3350684
yeah they needed them to take over the somali forts

Who knew Diaz was a competent commander.

>Svetozar Boroević von Bojna, the Austro-Hungarian commander, ordered a counter-attack on the Italian bridgeheads on the same day, but his troops refused to obey orders, a problem confronting the Austrians from that time on, and the counter-attack failed.
>On 28 October, Czechoslovakia declared independence from Austria-Hungary. The next day, the South Slavs proclaimed independence, and on 31 October, Hungary withdrew from the union, officially dissolving the Austro-Hungarian state. On 28 October, under these new political and military conditions, the Austro-Hungarian high command ordered a general retreat.
Good job, defeating military of a dissolved state.
>>3350991
Italy didn't do jack shit as an ally
>>3350536
Not once.
Stop bullying us please :(
>>3350536
Italians are good soldiers but have a shitty leadership
t. French
>>3350536
Making fun of this is fucking stupid. The italians didn't even want to fight France and the public opinion was shocked by that decision.
I really hope you're not french, if you are, you're just pathetic.

Stfu snownigger. Nordic people are getting overtaken by brown people. LMAO.
>>3351890
Not OP but I'm French, generally Italians are well perceived here. Best migrants, Latin bros, culturally very close to us... Actually we barely make fun of them.
>>3353654
Who the fuck is Roman if the Italians aren't?
>>3353661
No one
>>3350536
Italians just can't into war.
>>3353724
You realize that people still live in Rome, correct? Are they also not Roman despite actually living in Rome?
Italians are sandnigger tier at war. They should just stick to stealing other people's food.
>>3353735
They are romans as well as the people from Republic of Macenodia are macedonians
>>3353765
I really don't see any issue with either statement.
>>3353734
greeks are based
>>3353773
>I really don't see any issue with either statement.
because you are a brainlet
>>3353773
They can say whatever they want, but they aren't the same people, it was 2000 fucking years ago, Rome was conquered thousand of times and thousand of genocides happened there, and the actual Macedonia is not even located where the real Macedonia was.
>>3353785
Of course they aren't the same people. People are constantly dying and being replaced by the next generation. It's like that in every country. Nobody is immortal. I don't see how that makes them less Roman, or less Macedonian.
>>3350598
based luigi
As an Italian, yeah pretty much.
>>3352494
Luigi was eventually fired, but only after his forces decisively crushed by the Germans at the Battle of Caporetto. This effectively removed Italy from the war.
>>3350536
Russians make them look good
>>3353923
Russians play the long game

Give a better argument, Stormfront.
The fleets were composed of a mix of wooden ships and ironclads. The Italian fleet of 12 ironclads and 17 wooden ships outnumbered the Austrian fleet of 7 and 11 respectively. The Austrians were also severely outmatched in rifled guns (276 to 121)
At the moment when the Austrian ships started attacking, Persano, while sailing in the line formation with three ironclads in every squadron, suddenly decided to change his flagship. He left Re d'Italia and boarded Affondatore which was out of the battle formation, in order to be able to "intervene where it would be needed the most". By doing so, he caused confusion amongst his officers and disrupted the battle formation by leaving an empty space between the van and the center.
Seeing things going badly, Persano intervened, deciding to ram the unarmored line of battle ship Kaiser rather than one of the armored ships engaged with the Italian 2nd Division much nearer him. However, Kaiser managed to dodge Affondatore.
After its encounter with Re di Portogallo earlier in the battle and having fought its way clear of Maria Pia, Kaiser found itself at close range with Affondatore. Despite being a perfect target for a ram, Kaiser survived when Persano ordered Affondatore to turn away.
Persano returned and announced a victory, causing much initial celebration until the real outcome of the battle was publicized. He was forced to appear in front of the Italian Senate, which had the power to prosecute its members (such as Persano), and was dismissed from the navy for incapacity and alleged cowardice.

Lad, macedonians are bulgarians, not greeks.
