Question: There is a country in WW2 that the Allies invaded after securing the area of Northwest Africa which WINEP bundles together under one category. When did that country join the Allies?

<P0-S0> The Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WINEP) is a non-profit organization for research and advice on Middle Eastern policy. <P0-S1> It regards its target countries as the Middle East but adopts the convention of calling them the Near East to be in conformance with the practices of the State Department. <P0-S2> Its views are independent. <P0-S3> The WINEP bundles the countries of Northwest Africa together under "North Africa." <P0-S4> Details can be found in Policy Focus #65. <SEP> <P1-S0> Information gleaned via British Ultra code - breaking intelligence proved critical to Allied success in North Africa. <P1-S1> Victory for the Allies in this campaign immediately led to the Italian Campaign, which culminated in the downfall of the fascist government in Italy and the elimination of Germany's main European ally. <SEP> <P2-S0> the participation of italy in the second world war was characterized by a complex framework of ideology, politics, and diplomacy, while its military actions were often heavily influenced by external factors. <P2-S1> the imperial ambitions of the fascist regime, which aspired to restore the roman empire in north africa and the mediterranean (the mare nostrum, or the italian empire), were partially met with the annexation of albania and the province of ljubljana, and the occupation of british somaliland and other territories, but ultimately collapsed after defeats in the east and north african campaigns. <P2-S2> in july 1943, following the allied invasion of sicily, benito mussolini was arrested by order of king victor emmanuel iii, provoking a civil war. <P2-S3> italy surrendered to the allies at the end of the italian campaign. <P2-S4> the northern half of the country was occupied by germans with the fascists help and made a collaborationist puppet state (with more than 600,000 soldiers), while the south was governed by monarchist and liberal forces, which fought for the allied cause as the italian co-belligerent army (at its height numbering more than 50,000 men), helped by circa 350,000 partisans of disparate political ideologies that operated all over italy. <SEP> <P3-S0> koeberg alert is an anti-nuclear activist organisation formed in 1983 as a local campaign against south africa's nuclear programme, in particular the construction of koeberg nuclear power station. <P3-S1> it is possibly the country's first activist green movement, apart from nan rice's dolphin action and protection group. <P3-S2> for years it was allied to the broader democratic and anti-apartheid movement. <P3-S3> it currently organises various anti-nuclear campaigns, as well as participates in the wider anti-war and peace movements. <SEP> <P4-S0> Some 28 Italian divisions participated in the Balkan invasions. <P4-S1> The coast of Yugoslavia was occupied by the Italian Army, while the rest of the country was divided between the Axis forces (a German and Italian puppet State of Croatia was created, under the nominal sovereignty of Prince Aimone, Duke of Aosta, but actually governed by the Croatian fascist Ante Pavelić). <P4-S2> The Italians assumed control of most of Greece with their 11th Army, while the Bulgarians occupied the northern provinces and the Germans the strategically most important areas. <P4-S3> Italian troops would occupy parts of Greece and Yugoslavia until the Italian armistice with the Allies in September 1943.
