  1. Interesting enough I remember hearing how these two technically hated each other. Respect or not, you do not have to like the person you respect, and their alliance was out of circumstance, and nothing more. I do not remember where I heard this, so take it with a grain of salt, but I also heard that Mussolini actually wanted to make an Alliance with the French Pre-Pact of Steel, against Hitler after they Sacked the SA and other Socialist political rivals who had different ideas of the future of Germany who were originally supporters of Hitler. From what I heard Mussolini viewed it as similar to what happened in Russia under Lenin/Stalin and believed such a regime in Europe was dangerous. Though France refused it. Supposedly this attempt of a Alliance happened some time before The Germans Reoccupied the Demilitarized Rhineland. Wish I could remember where I heard this.
