The Italian Air Force was founded by what King of Italy who also claimed the thrones of Ethiopia and Albania?
Italian Air Force The Italian Air Force (Italian: Aeronautica Militare; AM) is the aerial defence force of the Italian Republic. The Air Force was founded as an independent service arm on 28 March 1923, by King Victor Emmanuel III as the "Regia Aeronautica" (which equates to "Royal Air Force"). After World War II, when Italy was made a republic by referendum, the "Regia Aeronautica" was given its current name. Since its formation the service has held a prominent role in modern Italian military history. The aerobatic display team is the Frecce Tricolori.
Italian Islands of the Aegean The Italian Islands of the Aegean (Italian: "Isole italiane dell'Egeo" ; Greek: Ἰταλικαὶ Νῆσοι Αἰγαίου Πελάγους ) were a group of twelve major islands (the Dodecanese) in the southeastern Aegean Sea, which — together with the surrounding islets — were ruled by the Kingdom of Italy from 1912 to 1943.
