Looking at the Italians stay out of WW2 thread was thinking about something in the back of my mind for a while, Italy and Ottoman’s how would the Balance sheet be keeping there noses out of the first big one,
Possibly seen as a few questions here

What would it take to Keep Both Italy and Ottoman’s out of the WW1

Flow on effects
I know the Russians would have more Troops for the Fight against the Austrians and Germans and a probably Free Flow of Goods from the Black sea
Balanced by not sure how much for the Central Powers ,Less Troops needed in the Alps against Italy and possibly some of the desperately needed War Materials seeping through Italy to the Central powers? not in enough to cause Britain and France to Blockade Italy but it walking a thin red line profiting

Looking at several things here and aftermath, How would they be treated by the Major powers and also the Balance sheets of how it would effect the conflict

Not sure how much Italy and the Ottomans would be able to Profit but would be interesting after the war when other Nations have Bludgeoned themselves in the Great Blood feast these to powers being intact

I am not sure who the Winners would be here so other than Italy and Ottoman Empires themselves ,leaving it open
