The Triple Alliance was a military alliance (agreement to fight together) between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. that lasted from 1882 until the start of World War I in 1914. The three countries promised to help each other if another country attacked them. The Italian people were not happy about the agreement because Austria-Hungary was an old enemy. In 1914, the Triple Alliance and the Triple Entente (France, Russia and the United Kingdom) started World War I.
