North Africa Campaign

The North Africa Campaign (1940-1943) was a series of battles during World War II, primarily between the Axis powers led by Germany and Italy, and the Allies, especially Britain and later the United States. It aimed to control North Africa for strategic access to the Mediterranean and oil resources. Key battles included El Alamein and the Tunisian Campaign. The Allies ultimately achieved victory, which was crucial in weakening Axis presence in Africa, enabling them to launch further operations in Europe. The campaign significantly influenced the war's outcome and boosted Allied morale.
