===The Ethiopian War===
In 1935, [[fascist]] [[Italy]] under the leadership of [[Mussolini]] invaded [[Ethiopia]], the only uncolonized nation in [[Africa]] and a member state of the [[League of Nations]].

Italy's colonial occupation of Italy was marked by the aerial bombardment and use of poison gas against civilian populations.
