Fascist Italy had a good plan, but it was executed poorly. In North Africa, Mussolini planned to invade Egypt (a British colony) in order to link Libia Italiana and Italian East Africa together. It would also be a gateway to the Middle East, where he could acquire vital oil supplies. He additionally planned to establish naval superiority over the Meditteranean by occupying Greece, Gibraltar, Malta, Cyprus, and the Suez Canal, thereby preventing the British and Free French from landing any troops in their African colonies and halting British trade (the fastest trading route from the United Kingdom to India was through the Suez Canal, and the other fastest alternative would be going around Africa and then landing in Maldives or Sri Lanka, which would have taken on average 3 months).
