The Tripartite Pact was the alliance between Germany, Italy, and Japan during the Second World War. This alliance was also known as the Berlin Pact or most commonly the Axis. The purpose of the Tripartite Pact was to promote military cooperation between its members.
The three strongest members of the alliance all wished to win control of vast empires through the armed conquest of their neighbors. Germany and Italy were natural allies, as they both wished to expand their lands at the cost of Britain, France, and their allies.
