Triple Entente
The
Triple Entente
(from French
entente
"friendship, understanding, agreement") was the understanding linking the
Russian Empire
, the
French Third Republic
, and the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
after the signing of the
Anglo-Russian Entente
on 31 August 1907. The understanding between the three powers, supplemented by agreements with
Japan
and
Portugal
, constituted a powerful counterweight to the
Triple Alliance
of
Germany
,
Austria-Hungary
and the
Kingdom of Italy
, though Italy did not side with Germany and Austria during
World War I
, and joined the Entente Powers instead.
