German Afrika Korps: History, Strategy, and Legacy

The German Afrika Korps was Germany’s expeditionary force in North Africa during World War II. Formed in 1941, it supported Italy against Allied forces and became closely associated with Field Marshal Erwin Rommel’s campaigns across Libya and Egypt.

Fighting amid harsh deserts, limited supply lines, and shifting alliances, the German Afrika Korps shaped the North African and Mediterranean theaters. Its eventual defeat at El Alamein and Tunisia marked a decisive Allied victory.
