That battle that we lost in 1917 is known to us as the "Disfatta di Caporetto". Austria and Germany pushed the Italian line down 150 kilometers, and it was such a huge loss that the name of the battle entered our language as a synonym of a catastrophic event or defeat. Even to this day, calling an event a "Caporetto" is like admitting it was an embarrassing loss.

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.

In Roman times, the most important resource for fighting was manpower, which Italy had plenty of (thanks to fertile farmland, and Roman expertise at irrigation to create more). In WW2 the most important resources were coal, iron, and oil, which Italy had hardly any of.

Irrelevancy? Don't think so, by this logic Germany, Russia and Austria should have been irrelevant too. Italy highly influenced the world even during colonial times through its culture, and became one of the major economies and powers once unified. Not to mention its great maritime republics. Plus, as history showed, having colonies but not being able to sustain and manage them can lead you to many economic, political and logistical problems as happened to Spain, Portugal and France. Infact the most successful colonizers were the Brits and to a certain extent the Dutch, given their little size. Not to mention that nowadays the main colonial powers of the past are literally being colonized back by immigrants from the former countries they invaded. It's true tho that a late unification and the inaccessibility to the Atlantic crippled the enormous Italy's potential to be a global superpower like in the Roman times 🤷, this tho doesn't mean that Italy could automatically have become and remained a global power just because of colonies since in order to impose yourself on the world stage you still had to be strong in Europe. Only exception to this, again, are the Brits who despite having never had a major direct foothold on mainland Europe still managed through their economy, navy and diplomacy to remain relevant on the stage. Despite all of this, Italy remained the richest area of Europe at least untill the 16th- mid 17th century. Plus, the historical, economical and cultural contribution that constantly came from Italy since the ancient to modern times (unlike Greece who unfortunately stopped with the Byzantines) will always put Italy into a place of relevance

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.

@giuliopatruno7849

4 жыл бұрын

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)

Indeed. In fact the same could be told about the Netherlands which despite being blocked by the Dover Strait still managed to reach South Africa and Indonesia.
