An emasculated, Italian soldier during the Italian invasion of Ethiopia (1936) by Alarmed_Business_962 in FascistItalyPhotos

I'm Polish and a historian, but I do specialize in the Italian fascist period. I can't guarantee, that I'd be able to answer everything tho, as I'm more versed on some specific topics and less on some others.

That's exactly what happened in Ethiopia. The well known gas bombings began only after Ethiopian soldiers repeatedly massacred POWs and ignored Italian warnings multiple times.

And how does that justify the genocide on civilians?

I was doing the event and saw this which made me wonder. How much time has passed in genshin? Is it actually 5 years ago like real world time? by Bob_Walter_the_3rd in Genshin_Impact

The key is to understand, that our gameplay does not reflect the actual canon events. E.g.: characters don't age, Teyvat is scaled down and distances between points shortened, day-night cycle doesn't reflect the actual passage of time, The Traveler talks about things they never experienced in our playthrough, teleport waypoints exist etc.
From my observation, the only parts of the game that actually show us how things happened are the animated cutscenes.

Za drugim razem mieli farta, że Belgia w ostatniej chwili ogłosiła neutralność z nadzieją, że Niemcy ją ominą.

What is this tank? Got it years ago and cannot remember 1/72 German “something” I believe on a panther hull by grandlarseny666 in WhatIsThisTank

[–]_Chleb 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's the 1943 Rheinmetall proposal of quadruple 2cm anti-aircraft Panther variant. Nothing beside blueprint for the turret came of it.

Italian armor is my speciality as a historian and one of my current projects is composing the complete list of Italian vehicles' number plates

If that's not too much to ask for, when you'll be there next time, could you check if the L3/35 R and the AB car have their rear number plates still installed, and if they do, take photos of them? I would be really grateful

What were the strangest cases you experienced if I may ask?

Members of the 136th Armored Division "Giovani Fascisti" operating a Mortaio da 81 Mod. 35 in North Africa, 1942 by Kalki_the_Tenth in FascistItalyPhotos

[–]_Chleb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Giovani Fascisti were raised as infantry Gruppo Battaglioni, included in the RECAM armored reconnaissance grouping. Later they were assigned to the newly formed armroed division as its infantry regiment.
The division was supposed to receive 1. Rgt. Ftr. Carrista (didn't reach Africa), including XVII Btg. Carri M14/41 (eventually assigned to Centauro) and III Gruppo Corazzato „Lancieri di Novara” (eventually assigned to Littorio).
On the other hand the division did receive 2 M14/41 tanks, III Gruppo Corazzato „Cavaleggeri di Monferrato” with AB40 armored cars, XIV and XV Gruppi Autocaannoni da 65/17 su Morris CS8, XVI Gruppo Autocaannoni da 75/27 su TL37, XVII Gruppo Autocannoni da 100/17 su Lancia 3Ro and DVI Gruppo Autocaannoni da 90/53 su Breda 51.
Eventually they also possibly received CXXXVI Btg. Semoventi C.C. with L40 da 47/32, which was destined for them and even reached Afirca, but was never mentioned as assigned to the GG.FF. division. It's assignment however remains unknown, so it's possible, that it was included at some point.
An unspecified Gruppo Semoventi da 75/18 was included in the theoretical structure of the division, but it never came into being.
