Detailed explanation-1: -Triple Alliance, secret agreement between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy formed in May 1882 and renewed periodically until World War I. Germany and Austria-Hungary had been closely allied since 1879. Italy sought their support against France shortly after losing North African ambitions to the French.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Triple Alliance, comprised of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy, and Triple Entente, comprised of Russia, France, and Great Britain, were agreements between European nations seeking support against their perceived European enemies.
Detailed explanation-3: -Italy really wasn’t as great of a partner in the Triple Alliance as Germany and Austria-Hungary were. Italy, for a long time, had hated Austria Hungary and were wary about entering into an alliance with them. Italy was a little bit like a “third wheel” in the triple alliance.
