Everything Everywhere Daily - The North Africa Campaign

Before the Allied invasions of Normandy or Sicily in World War II, the ground war against Germany and Italy was first fought in North Africa.

The reason why there was even a conflict in Africa was a combination of geography and history. Even though it doesn’t get the attention the war in Asia or Europe receives, the war in North Africa was pivotal to the ultimate resolution of the war in Europe. 

Had things gone differently, the entire course of the war would have changed.

Learn more about the North Africa Campaign, why it was fought and how it was resolved on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
