The "Axis" powers were a military and political alliance between Germany, Italy and Japan. Its goals were to achieve vast expansion through aggressive warfare. They promised to fight against Communism and never interfere with each other's foreign takeovers. They fought against the Allied powers (chiefly the US, France, Britain, and the Soviet Union) in World War 2.

Major Axis Powers: Germany, Japan, Italy.

Minor Axis Powers: Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Croatia and Slovakia (joined or left the alliance separately).

The three main Axis powers were:

  • Germany: Führer (Leader) Adolf Hitler.
  • Italy: Duce (Leader) Mussolini.
  • Japan: Prime Minister Tojo Hideki.

The two main powers originally referred to as the Rome-Berlin Axis were Germany and Italy. They were joined by Japan in the Tripartite Pact signed on September 27, 1940 in Berlin. A number of other nations joined this alliance under various other pacts and all were thereafter generally referred to as Axis Nations. These included Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, and Croatia.

Axis Powers in World War 2

  • Major Powers of the Axis: Germany, Japan and Italy (Italy later fought against the Axis).

  • Co-Belligerents of the Axis: Thailand (Japan) and Finland (Germany).
  • Japanese Puppet States: Manchuria, Inner Mongolia, Burma, The Second Phillipine Republic.
  • Italian Puppet State: Albania.
  • German Puppet State: Italian Social Republic.
  • Collaborators: Vichy France.
  • Neutral, but aiding the Axis: Spain.

Finland fought against the U.S.S.R. alongside the axis, but is usually considered a "co-belligerent" rather than an Axis power.
