Table of content
Overview 🌟
Benito Mussolini = Italian big shot from 1922 till WWII. Tried turning Italy into a fancy Fascist party central and dreamed of a New Roman Empire. But... spoiler: he didn’t make Italy totally fascist.🎈
Mussolini Mania 🍕
- 1922: Mussolini clocks into power.
- He's like the Justin Bieber of Italian leaders (super popular).
- Goals
- Italy: Fascist transformation🔮.
- New Roman Empire: Claiming Africa and Mediterranean like it's a game of Monopoly.
🔍 Deep Dive: Ipsen says in "Dictating Demography" that Mussolini's revolution was kinda like trying to bake a cake but forgetting the flour. He didn’t really get full support, create a new society, or a completely fascist Italy.
