Chapter XVIII: The Desert Campaign
When the glorious Italian army crossed the Suez canal, the "British" army had to retreat into Alexandria.
Duce then gave the order to capture the Egyptian-Sudanese border, and trap the allies into North Africa.
General Pariani's troops achieved total encirclement of the allied forces in North Africa in sixth of August.
Over one million Commonwealth troops were now trapped between the Italo-Bulgarian forces.
One Month Later
Italo-Bulgarian forces have relentlessly driven the allies into destruction, it will not be long before our enemies fall.
And Africa will be free from the British Imperialism, and they will get much nicer and altogether better Italian Imperialism.
On the 23rd of September the Allies fight their last battle in North Africa
Remains of their army are trapped in the town of Bardia, fighting for their lives, many non-British soldiers surrender eagerly because the allies no longer have food or, more importantly, water.
Australian soldiers in Bardia, the artillery fire from the Italian battleships caused many casualties amongst the Anzac troops, but very few of them surrendered.
Finally all of Northern Africa was ours!
From Tunis to Tel Aviv all people are now under Italian protection!
But new challenges await us, for we must now liberate our colony in East Africa, and destroy the British presence in the continent.

The Americans decided to celebrate Fourth of July by getting their soldiers killed in a desperate attempt to liberate France.
German forces were quick to seize the landing beaches, and by the end of July all American forces surrendered to the victorious Germans.
