Abstract
- If only to recapture lost prestige in its colonial possessions England must win a war. But hat is not the sole reason. The conquest of Ethiopia has only whetted Mussolini's appetite. Both to England and to Italy control of the Mediterranean is important more as a means than as an end in itself. The Mediterranean has again become what it was in the Middle Ages, the center of the world developments in air transportation since the World War have greatly enhanced its importance. The air route from France and England to the Far East and India is over the Mediterranean.
