Set during World War II, the narrative explores Italy's military ambitions under Mussolini, focusing on the disastrous campaign against Greece that began in October 1940. Following Italy's occupation of Albania and its protectorate over the Dodecanese Islands, the campaign revealed Italy's military weaknesses, compelling Germany to intervene. This shift transformed Italy's pursuit of dominance in the Balkans into a subordinate conflict aligned with German interests, highlighting the complexities of alliances and the consequences of military overreach.
