Did Germany have better allies in WWI or WWII?

From an allied perspective, Germanies allies in WW2 were way better. Japan forced the US to focus on two major fronts. This meant that the US did not have its way in western europe re an early 42/43 assualt into France. Which, lets face it would have been a huge allied fucktastrophe:eek:
 
I'll have to go with World War 1. The least useful of Germany's allies probably had to be Bulgaria, but I guess they had some limited use in finally rolling up Serbia. The Ottoman Empire and AH pretty much raced neck to neck for most useful allies. One on hand, the Austrians had a bigger army and economy, but on the other, their record in 1914 was appalling (though it improved somewhat in later years). The entry of the Ottomans pretty much cut off Russia from the rest of the world, and drew troops away from other fronts, requiring relatively little aid from Germany to do so (mostly monetary aid as well as some officers, rather than the huge troops numbers AH needed). Overall, I'd have to give most useful ally to the Ottomans.
 
Austria-Hungary is in my opinion the best ally Germany had looking through both WK in terms of commitment. The Empire fought till the last moment, having itself ripped apart in the process which is by far even worst than what happened with Germany at the end of WW1.
 
Most definitely WWI, AH and OE were great allies, coordinating with each other, and having a comon goal.
The Japanese and Italians were all over the place during the WWII, especialy the Italians who overestimated themself and got their asses kicked time and time again. Japan drew US in the war (one could argue US embargo drew Japan in)
