  Victor Emmanuel III of Italy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Victor Emmanuel III of Italy (11 November, 1869 28 December, 1947), was the King of Italy (29 July, 1900 9 May, 1946), and claimed the titles Emperor of Ethiopia (1936 - 1943) and King of Albania (1939 - 1943).
Victor Emmanuel III's position as Emperor of Ethiopia was not universally accepted, as Italy had overthrown the native Emperor, Haile Selassie.
The United Kingdom, among many others, refused to recognise Victor Emmanuel's 'new' title (as indeed did many to his claim to be King of Albania) with King George VI as King of the United Kingdom on the advice of the British government accrediting ambassadors to Victor Emmanuel as merely 'King of Italy'.

Italy is unique in the immensity of its coast line, which is 4,160 miles long, and in the nearness of every city to the sea.
Italy's desire was to obtain a natural boundary on the northeast, from the Brenner to the Julian Alps, and to eliminate any maritime rivalry on the Adriatic, that would be dangerous to her unprotected eastern coast.
In the Peace Conference, the tension between Italy and the new Jugoslav State was so extreme as to lead to the fear of war at any moment on account of Italy's occupation of Slav territory which she considered should belong to her.

Before the war, Italy was a significant power in Europe and while not specifically anti-German, Mussolini was opposed to any territorial realignment in Europe that did not involve Italy gaining territory.
Germany and Italy were also natural territorial rivals, as Mussolini clearly understood that a German seizure of Austria would reopen the Tyrol issue.
At the end of the war, Italy emerged weak, estranged from her natural ally of Great Britain and somewhat reliant on the rising power of Germany.

Then I proposed to revive the objections we had made at the Congress of Paris against the illegitimate extension of Austrian power in Italy: for instance, the treaty of 1847 between Austria and the Dukes of Parma and Modena; the prolonged Austrian occupation of the Romagna and the Legations; the new fortifications at Piacenza.
The Emperor readily agreed that it was necessary to drive the Austrians out of Italy once and for all, and to leave them without an inch of territory south of the Alps or west of the Isonzo [River which now forms part of the border between Italy and Croatia].
And one is bound to recognize that, in the last of the wars of the Empire, at the terrible battle of Leipzig [Oct. 16-19, 1813], it was the Austrian battalions, which contributed most to the defeat of the French army.
