As we all know, in triple alliance, Germany has the strongest comprehensive strength and is fully capable of putting aside the other two. Then why are these three countries together? The advantages mentioned above bring them together, so what are the advantages? Before talking about them, let's talk about the similarities: Italy, Japan and Germany are all aggressive in their external expansion, and there is no foreign aid in the world, so they are isolated and helpless. It happened that these three countries came together.
First, the German-Japanese alliance
What's in Japan? Lack of resources, a small island country, where is the German alliance! Here, let's not forget that Japan has a powerful navy, and no other country's navy can compare with Japan in the maritime power in Asia. At that time, Europe was dominated by two old empires, Britain and France, and Britain was even called the "empire that never sets", with colonies all over the world. At that time, when Germany wanted to attack the British colonies, it had to consider Britain's maritime military strength. Japan, a powerful maritime power, can pose a threat to Britain, so that the pressure on Germany in Europe will be much less.
Second, the German-Italian alliance.
Italy's comprehensive strength in the three-nation alliance is very low compared with the two countries, so why did Germany find such a weak teammate?
Look at the map of Europe and you will find the problem. The key geographical location and long coastline, Germany does not have a Mediterranean coastline, while Italy does, which makes Italy stronger than Germany in naval construction. Germany can compete with France in the army, but it is a short board in the navy.
Japan and Italy acquired navies, which made up for the lack of German power at sea. The core of the three-nation alliance is to make up for the shortcomings. Personal opinion, please point out the shortcomings of our friends!
