What was wrong with my edit?
Overall, Italian morale did not break and both sides achieved an uneasy stalemate. Eventually, Greek morale and resistance did collapse and the Italians broke through to occupy much of Greece soon after. [1] 92.133.176.171 ( talk) 22:08, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
Then can you explain how the Italians got into and occupied Greece? As I understand it, the Greeks also surrendered to the Italians as Mussolini insisted that the Greeks also sign an official surrender to the Italians. If the Greeks did sign a surrender treaty to the Italians, then logically, they also surrendered to the Italians. The Germans and the Italians were actually on the same side as Axis partners. It was not two wars, but the same war. When Nazi Germany surrendered, they didn't surrender just to the Americans and leave the British out, or exclude the Russians. Germany surrendered to all the Allies, not pick and choose the ones they preferred to surrender to. AnnalesSchool ( talk) 12:37, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
The Italians got into Greece as a result of the German invasion, see Battle of Greece. The fact that Nazi Germany forced the Greek side to capitulate both to Germany and Italy, doesn't mean that Italy finally defeated Greece on battlefield.
Moreover, a discussion should be initiated in the correspodent article: Greco-Italian War, which is generally considered a seperate conflict, in which Greece was victorious repelling the Italian invasion. Alexikoua ( talk) 13:13, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
