Period 4  Italy
Italy 4, 1938
–Today was a big day. I talked with my allies about getting the resources that I
need. Germany is helping me out with my lack of coal. This will improve my rating.
My alliances and I are going to do whatever we can to make sure all of us have what
we need. Our alliances are strong. We plan on moving in fast to get the resources. I
plan on staying true to my alliances, unless we start to struggle. Germany is pretty
strong and willing to help me out so right now the best thing for my country is to
stay allied. We are going to start out strong and end up very victorious.

Italy 4, 1939

–Today nothing happened. I didn’t start any wars because nothing was needed.
Germany transferred some of their coal over to me since I was very low on that
supply. Tomorrow I plan on taking French North Africa. I need a lot of resources
and that have a few. My strategy right now is to get everything I need to make my
ratings go up. Of course I am going to try to work with my allies as well. The Axis
powers are still very strong and we are accomplishing many group goals. So today
was a very good day.

Italy 4, 1940

–Today I took over Egypt. It is just one step closer to getting to Iraq. I need to
conquer them to gain more oil. My strategy right now is to take over everything in
my way. Today Romania gave me enough oil to fulfill my need and Japan is
thinking about giving me rubber. Once I gain that oil, I will have all my needed
resources. Germany, Japan, and I are still working together to gain as much land as
possible. I am still staying true to my alliance because Germany is still powerful. I
have thought about switching if I need to but I will still help out japan if I do.

Italy 4, 1941

–Today I took over Palestine. Great Britain and France started to move their Navy
down to where mine is, I have a feeling they are going to try to take the suez canal
back. My strategy is to fight as much as I can but I know that if they go through
with it, I won’t survive. My strategy if I lose will then be to take out France.
Germany and I discussed getting payback if they took out my navy. But if I win I

am still going to try to take over everything in my way up to Iraq. I was able to get
all of my rubber from Japan today to the only thing I need is iron. I don’t know
how to get it, and if they get my navy I won’t be able to get it. My strategy for the
last few days has been to get all the resources I needed for my country and I have
been able to get all but one. Besides the fact that my navy may get taken out
tomorrow, I think I have been very successful and have helped out my people by
getting them our needed resources.

Italy 4, 1942

–Today I changed to the allies. Germany made the mistake of moving all of their
troops to one side, the side away from Italy. The allies were going to take up that
mistake and start wars. They would’ve had to go through me to get all of the
Germany’s land. That was something I wasn’t willing to risk. Along with them
moving all to one side, the USSR and USA joined the war. I knew that the USA got
a lot of troops and their power grew everyday. That was another sign Germany was
getting helpless. They made the mistake to move. After I joined the allies, my
strategy changed. Its now to help take out the Axis powers take out Germany. We
moved all of our navies over to the USA to get their army over to France and
tomorrow we are going to start more war.

Italy 4, 1943

Today nothing happened. Our strategy is to move as many US troops so we can
take out Germany. We moved things around to make it as easy as possible. My
personal strategy is to keep up with the Allies. We need to take Germany out. I
know that we are going to move tomorrow and I hope we win. I have been helping
out the allies as much as possible.

Italy 4, 1944

–Today we plan on taking out G1. We are going to move all of my troops from Italy
and all of the troops from F1 to takeout G1. He doesn’t have a lot of troops in the
surrounding areas so we should be victorious. Then we are going to continue
moving in. Germany only has 200 troops left so it will be pretty easy. We are all
working together to take down Germany.

Italy 4, 1945

Today is the last day. We started war with Germany and took over a lot of land. We
got our overall goal complete: beat the axis powers. I attempted to get my last few
objectives done but we didn’t have a turn before the end of class. Germany lost all of
its troops so it was easy for us to take over land. Germany tried to fight back but
lost. Our strategy was to just take over as much land as possible and we made a lot

of progress today. The war is over and the allies won. The best decision I made was
to join them, I wish I did it sooner.
