	Triple Alliance (1882) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The Triple Alliance (Dreibund) was the treaty by which Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy pledged (May 20, 1882) to support each other militarily in the event of an attack against any of them by two or more great powers.
		Italy's partial adherence to the German-Austrian was because a Dual Alliance was triggered partly by anger at France's May 1881 seizure of Tunisia, which many Italians had seen as a potential colony.
		When Germany and Austria-Hungary found themselves at war in August 1914 with the rival Triple Entente of Britain, France and the latter's ally Russia, Italy pledged their support, but subsequently entering the conflict on the side of the Entente against Austria-Hungary in May 1915 and Germany in August 1916 (see World War I).

		Negotiated and signed in May 1881, the Triple Alliance brought Italy into the alliance previously agreed between Germany and Austria-Hungary (in 1879) as a counterweight to France and Russia.
		One of the chief aims of the Triple Alliance was to prevent Italy from declaring war against Austria-Hungary, towards whom the Italians were in constant dispute over territorial matters.
		Although regularly renewed up until the outbreak of war in 1915, the Triple Alliance was essentially ineffective with regard to Italy’s participation, for in 1902 (just five months after the latest renewal of the Alliance) Italy reached an understanding with France that each would remain neutral in the event of an attack upon the other.

		The Triple Entente was derived from the Franco-Russian Alliance formalized in 1893 and the Anglo-French Entente Cordiale of 1904.
		Because the alliance system was mostly designed to protect global interests, nations had little freedom of action in Europe itself and could easily be dragged by their allies into unwanted wars.

		In the most common alliance of this type, the "Western Triple" of France/England/ Germany, England and Germany can gang up on Russia while France pretty much has his own way with Italy, who generally starts out oriented toward the east.
		There's nothing wrong with a triple alliance in the early game (it certainly beats being the odd man out of a two-against-one) but success almost always destabilizes the arrangement, and nobody should pretend to themselves going in that a triple is a permanent deal.
		Later on in the game, triples of down-and-out countries or desperation stop-the- leader alliances are possible, but they hardly count.

		While sundry skirmishes between the Paraguayan and the Triple Alliance Army took place in Corrientes and the nearby area, between September, 1865 and March, 1866, the Allies Commanders under General Bartolomй Mitre, Argentina's president, were evaluating those problems and preparing a plan of waging war on the Paraguay soil.
		Knowing that the Triple Alliance forces were closing in on him from all sides and that he could not stand a frontal battle against them, he decided to seek a secure refugee in the countryside on the Azcurra heights while his men would launch guerrillas attacks to fustigate the enemy supplies and small detachments.
		The Triple Alliance Force grew to almost 45,000 troops, of which 40,000 were Brazilians, some 4,000 were Argentineans and a few hundreds were Uruguayans.

	DP W2002A: AIRhead Alliance vs. SWAT
		In the Summer 2000 issue of Diplomacy World, Mark Fassio began a discussion on the possible development of another triple alliance of Austria, Italy and Russia (AIR) and his idea of an overwhelming opening blow against the west which he sees as coming from the moves to Bohemia, Tyrolia and Silesia in Spring 01.
		With any triple the key is to make sure that the game does not come down in the opening to 3 vs 4, which is the current very real danger of the Swat opening since it is an "In Your Face" alliance that will inspire the other players to stop it.
		The other issue that is rather eloquent in the alliance structure is that when done right, there are no stalemate lines between the three powers so that it is truly a strategic and diplomatic feat to balance to the end and pull it off.

		Instead, the action set the stage for the May 1865 signing by Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay (now reduced to puppet status) of the Treaty of the Triple Alliance.
		The army suffered from a critical shortage of key personnel, and many of its fighting units were undermanned.
		Paraguay's population was only about 450,000 in 1865--a figure lower than the number of people in the Brazilian National Guard--and amounted to less than one-twentieth of the combined allied population of 11 million.

		In the end the failure of Italy to stand by this alliance, leading to her eventual declaration of war on Austria on 23rd May 1915, was a significant factor in the eventual victory of England and France in 1918.
		Tyrolia is obviously a key space in this alliance, with few exceptions if any one of the three takes it, the other two should assume the worst.

		The BJP coalition government, by contrast, is reforming the economy along free market lines and becoming much closer to the U.S. The emerging Triple Alliance is thus of far more than regional importance, linking together three pro-Western and powerful states in the unstable Middle East and Central Asia.
		Because Turkey is a member of NATO and Israel is also a close ally, whose security depends heavily on American support, the Triple Alliance also extends America's influence and reach in a region that contains the bulk of the world's energy resources and most of its security headaches.
