Why Italy Began Imperialism

Italy began imperialism for similar reasons at that time. During the 1800’s the threat of war through Europe over Africa was growing bigger, they needed to take untouched resources such as gold, iron and ivory. Italy colonized to build new industries, trying to pick up resources as much as they can to settle in their own country.
Italy wanted resources badly, so they conquered more land in the south and the east, so they had a backup plan for whatever actions like the bombing. So as I said before resources are very important stuff back then and without resources how else can a country keep up with the other countries and not be weak and can’t do anything to fight back or to defend itself from the attackers. Resources make Italy keep up and not falling
So catching up is very important thing so other countries don’t see them as weak power and can be easily controlled , so what needs to be done is that Italy gather resources , make industrial ideas like factories , arm up and make defensive force . Therefore,Italy caught up by taking lands, expanding territory and arm up the army. So catching up also included defensive power for their own territory, and by making safe armed borders and making military bases across the country and the colonies. However , this has been a way of making the country get strong and wise so it doesn’t get back behind everybody and don’t take benefit from anything including , resources , colonies and money. But what matters id that the power and the strength of the country , so if the strength and power of the country is very strong it can manage itself in hard places and they don’t stand and wait for opinions m they act simple as the plan goes for them . so what italy had is not very strong power and strength but still they had their own ideas and plans for what to do and what not to do for there
