If Britain had not only imposed economic sanctions, but closed the Suez Canal to Italian trade, this would have shut down the Italian economy due to a lack of access to raw materials. This coupled with the Great Depression would force Mussolini to concede to the western nations. ]]> 2020-10-15 18:17:05 UTC https://padlet.com/9959567/ol1gfdwyo6h0pb9n/wish/833506828 9959567 https://padlet.com/9959567/ol1gfdwyo6h0pb9n/wish/833507121 Italy had the upper hand because they were using the threat of joining Hitler to force the French and British to appease Italy. One of the reasons that the League of Nations did not use military force in the Abyssinian Crisis was because they did not want to anger Mussolini. If Mussolini sided with Germany, this would not only add support to Hitler's regime, but it would also be unfavorable for France because they would now share two boarders with belligerent nations. ]]> 2020-10-15 18:17:10 UTC https://padlet.com/9959567/ol1gfdwyo6h0pb9n/wish/833507121 https://padlet.com/9959567/ol1gfdwyo6h0pb9n/wish/833526966 France and Great Britain were both stronger countries.
