    The Second Italo-Ethiopian War began in October 1935 when the armed forces of Italy invaded Ethiopia (also known as Abyssinia) from Italian Somaliland and Eritrea. This resulted in Ethiopia's military occupation and annexation as the colony of Italian East Africa. The League of Nations, of which both Italy and Ethiopia were members, failed to prevent the invasion despite Italy violating the League's agreements. Sanctions by the UK and France against Italy for the invasion were not fully enforced and failed to end the conflict.

    Main article: Second Italo-Ethiopian War

    The Second Italo–Ethiopian War was a brief colonial war that began in October 1935 and ended in
    May 1936. The war began with the invasion of the Ethiopian Empire (also known as Abyssinia) by
    the armed forces of the Kingdom of Italy (Regno d'Italia), which was launched from Italian
    Somaliland and Eritrea.[27] The war resulted in the military occupation of Ethiopia and
    its annexation into the newly created colony of Italian East Africa (Africa Orientale Italiana, or AOI);
    in addition it exposed the weakness of the League of Nations as a force to preserve peace. Both
    Italy and Ethiopia were member nations, but the League did little when the former clearly violated
    Article X of the League's Covenant.[28] The United Kingdom and France supported imposing
    sanctions on Italy for the invasion, but they were not fully enforced and failed to end the Italian
    invasion.[29] Italy subsequently dropped its objections to Germany's goal of absorbing Austria.[30]
