TRIPPLE ALLIANCE DURING World War 1?

The Triple Alliance during World War I was a military alliance formed in 1882 between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. Initially, it was designed for mutual defense against aggression, particularly from France and Russia. However, when the war broke out in 1914, Italy chose not to join its allies and instead entered the conflict on the side of the Allies in 1915, effectively leaving the Triple Alliance weakened. Thus, the alliance played a lesser role in the war than its counterpart, the Triple Entente.
