• Corfu 1923:

  > The border between Albania and Greece still hadn't been decided. So an Italian General named Tellini was sent to investigate. He and his team were murdered. Mussolini was furious and demanded compensation. When he didn't get it, he invaded the island of Corfu, killing 15 people.
• Corfu 1923:

  > The League said that Italian aggression was wrong, but Greece still had to pay compensation.
• Outcome of Corfu 1923:

  > Italy did not accept this and Mussolini complained to the Conference of Ambassadors: a powerful group of countries including France, Britain and Japan.
• Outcome of Corfu 1923:
