Edit links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A map showing most of the projected Axis Powers operational plans for expansion that did not reach its objectives, or were not possible to execute during World War II, with the main goal to establish a global New Order.

Planning for global territorial expansion of the Axis powers; Germany, Italy and Japan, progressed before and during the Second World War. This included some special strike plans against the Allied nations (with similar intentions to the James Doolittle raid special Allied Strike). The Kingdom of Romania, a de facto major member of the Axis with a contribution on par with Italy's, is also included.[1][2][3]
