>italian tier

The Italian Wars didn't do their reputation any favors. Or how they did against Napoleon.

>Italians fought against Napoleon

>italy isn't shit at war even though it just so happens they're shit everytime they get into a war

user do you think the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy came to be known as that without a fight?

what is roman empire

They fought Austrians, Italians welcomed them as liberators

not Italian

>rome isn't in Italy

>look these people live where these other guys did 2000 years ago so they must be the same thing

WE

Something that existed a millenium before the concept of an Italian state

Try harder

>Couldn't beat Austria-Hungary without British and French support, even after backstabbing them mid way through the war
>Couldn't beat Britain even with German support even though she was fighting on two other fronts and was massively outnumbered
>Couldn't beat stone age niggers until just before WWII

Yeah, all Mussolini's fault.. Italians are just incompetent.

even when someone else does all the work shitaly still can't win

literally all italys fault

if they weren't so shit the axis would've won

>Couldn't beat stone age niggers
Didn't the Ethiopians have essentially WW1-era weapons? Granted it was shitty handmedowns, but they weren't fighting with spears.

What do you think Italians were using? At best they had some mostly shit interwar equipment that wasn't much of a step up from world war 1. I guess only the air arm could be said to have been far ahead compared to ww 1.

>What do you think Italians were using?
They were more modernized and at least knew HOW to fight a modern war even if they weren't good at it. Not to mention they had paratroopers, which is the one division of the Italian military that actually was genuinely feared by the allies.

>lost 12 of the same battles

Italians are bad at war because they've consistently shown themselves to be shit at fighting them post-Roman times

I'm pretty sure they were fighting with ancient napoleonic weaponry and spears during the first war.

ethiopians in the 1930 are the same ase the zulus in 1800

while the italians were dying of hunger

> the 34th battle of Isonzo

>backstabbing
debatable since italy had a defensive alliance with germany and austria and pretty much hated the latter because of the indipendence wars

Hard to beat another army when you don't have the ammo to do so (and the food to maintain yours also)

>WWI
>grind like retards for an year agains bottom of the barrel AH reserves at a meme river with nothing to show for it
>germans wreck them so bad at caporetto that their army falls apart and takes an year to rebuild
Whoa, such military prowess
