Persia was never part of the roman empire. This is what you should be aiming for. We'll forgive you if the empire ends up a bit larger than before. :D

No problem!
=D

As far as I know, those easternmost provinces were never directly administered by the empire, but rather the Roman client kingdom of Armenia. At the height of the empire the Southeast part of the map, labeled Arabia, was the client kingdom of Nabatea. Although you're right of course, I see commie stomping in the future :cool:
Soviet Union only by 1942, after Barbarossa smash them..

Time to liberate Israel. :D
I don't think so, none countrie with land in the Mediterrean Sea coast will be freed by our glorious Italy Empire.

He's not going to do it, so don't argue about it. I look forward to your fight with Germany :D.
Germany? This war lies a little further tham my eyes can see in the moment.

Earth's Savior said:

Gaining Crimea will also be a bit difficult...

Forgot to add, great Historical pictures there, especially when Zog married! :D
Crimea? Why Crimea?

The wars with Romania, Turkey and Yuguslavia were difficult, they help were invaluable, thus, ther troops are being used now, they are a really good help.
Hungary is not a historical ally, Bulgaria either, but if Rome always used allies why can't I use them too??
;)

Crimea for the Roman Empire... but it doesn't matter anyway...
You are right, sorry, I didn't know it.
 
The loss of your ships must be avenged!
Yay for Ehiopia though! If you like to think big; perhaps split africa between Italy and her african puppet, northern Africa to Italy, southern Africa to Ethiopia(yes, I really like Ethiopia)
 
February 26th, 1940

In January, France and UK launched many amphibious operations in Italians Mediterrean Islands. The situation became too dangerous to Italy as these islands felt in Allied hands: The Baleares (Ibiza, Mallorca, Menorca), Sardine and Corsega. But..

With the reinforcements that arrive in Operazione Catapulta the Italian Army successfully encircled the British in a pocket near Sinai.

As you can see the only fronts when there is still battle is Egypt (Sinai and El Alamein) and Iraq.

With Suez in our hands the war turns in our favor again after a dark January when the Allies had the advantage. Now, reinforcements arrive from both sides of Egypt, Suez an El Alamein.

Just one addend about HSR:

When Vichy France is created, a ridiculous event fires: "returned of Vichy occuped territories", however, this event also fires for non-Axis members that are at war with France. Well, this is extremily unrealistic, because Italy don't have any idea of seccede provinces to the defeated France. So I just modded it to doesn't fire to Italy.

And I'm lucky, there is 8 UK ships locked in the Mediterrean.

FOUR of them are aircrafts carriers!!!
:D
 
Middelkerke said:
Taking back Sardine should be priority number 1
Why should I?

Now that the Med is closed the british division there will starve to death, anyway the Brits don't have a respectable fleet there no more.
