Correct answers: a, c, and d.
- a: Yes — both pursued territorial expansion (Germany’s Lebensraum and annexations; Italy’s claims in Africa, the Balkans, and former Austro-Hungarian lands).
- c: Yes — both resented the post–World War I settlement (Germany sought revenge for the Treaty of Versailles; Italy felt cheated by the “mutilated victory”).
- d: Yes — both regimes aimed to become major/world powers (Nazi Germany’s ambitions for European/world domination; Fascist Italy’s imperial aims).
b is false because Germany was required to pay reparations after WWI, but Italy, as a victorious power, did not owe reparations.
