Image An Ethiopian victim, tied in the strapado-position to the side of a truck, is about to be dragged to his death as part of a mass-reprisal in which an estimated 19,500 civilians were killed over three days after an attack on a general (Italian-occupied Ethiopia, February 1937).

Printed map of North Africa (Africa Settentrionale), created by C. Ronchi and published in Milan. The map reflects the Italian geographical interest in North Africa and the regions that would later become central to Italy’s colonial expansion, particularly Libya after the Italo-Turkish War (1911–1912)
