The Italo-Turkish War, more formally known as the Second Italo-Turkish War, is a conflict between Italy and Turkey in the immediate aftermath of the collapse of the Triumvirate.
 
== Lead-Up ==
In the years leading up to 1962, the Turkish government had been demanding control of several Mediterranean islands with a significant Turkish population, and more territory in the Levant from the Italians. This issue was planned to be negotiated at the 1962 Malta Conference, but the bombing prevented any resolution from occurring.
 
Following the failure of the Conference, relations between Italy and Turkey reached a low point. The Triumvirate collapsed as both Turkey and the Iberian Union blamed the Italian government for the lack of security that led to the bombing. With no alliance binding them, the Turkish government decided that they would solve the border issue by force.
 
== In-Game ==
The war is unique in TNO, as Italy doesn't actually declare war on Turkey. The war is simulated with Turkey fighting the Italian Levant, to which Italy sends volunteers. Meanwhile, combat on the other fronts is handled through the border war mechanic.
 
== Potential Outcome ==
Unlike most conflicts in TNO, The Italo-Turkish War has a wide variety of possible outcomes depending on who prevails on which front.
