    In 1796, a French leader named Napoleon Bonaparte lead his army to attack Italy. Napoleon was an innovator and an opportunist. Although Napoleon had his own reasons for taking over Northern Italy, France mainly wanted Italy for financial and strategic reasons. At this time, Austria owned a portion of Italy, but France wanted to keep this land from them because “it was an ideal outpost for defense and offense” (Sarti 19). Only a few months into Napoleon’s rule, he had changed the political landscape of Italy which had been in place for years. After the Jacobins took power in Genoa in the north and the Roman Republic replaced papal rule in Rome, the Parthenopean Republic replaced the royal court, who escaped to…

    Benito Mussolini was the leader of the Fascist Party in Italy and he had always resisted codifying the principle of fascism, but when the Enciclopedia Italiana requested an article explaining fascism, he insisted on giving his process behind the way a country should be runned. The explanation of the principle of fascism was “The Doctrine of Fascism” published in 1932. Fascism is the idea of giving interest in economic, social, and military power to a dominant race or state lead by one leader. Fascism is used to categorize censorship and oppression. Benito believed in one ruler and all the other political parties were banned in Italy. In Italy everything was made to favor the fascist government. But Benito helped society by providing jobs to unemployed people by using public work camp. Fascism brought a better economy after the war but…

    It was at this time when small, pro nationalist groups began to spread all over Italy under the new name of the fascist party which was under the control of one Benito Mussolini. He swiftly began to increase in popularity and he would stop at nothing to get to the top of the political ladder. This-in conjunction to the rest of his life-can be used to make a judgement on whether Benito Mussolini was a man who cared for the renewal of his country and or if he believed that all men were expendable for his well-being. Many historians have come to the conclusion that he was a vein man of evil as he invaded defenceless nations such as Ethiopia in the name of establishing fascism within East Africa. He became the accomplice of Adolf Hitler thereby disregarding the Jewish people. And finally his lust for power and greed brought about the timely fall of his fascist empire. Therefore, it can be said that Benito Mussolini was a vile and self-righteous…

    To some extent, Mussolini’s ability to secure and increase his power in 1919-1928 was due to the weaknesses of his political opponents. However, Mussolini’s strengths were also an important part in doing this. Mussolini was able to increase his power from 1922-1928 through his strategy, his ability to obtain Rule by Decree, the establishment of the Grand Council of Fascism and the fact that he had the support of powerful groups. He also used various violent tactics, which meant the Fascists had the power of the state behind them. However, Mussolini’s opponents were very weak. This is demonstrated in the failure of the Aventine succession and the weaknesses of the Liberals and the Socialists.…

    When Benito Mussolini concluded his violent and semi-legal seizure of power in Italy on the 29th October 1922, the Fascist era began in victory as crowds of Blackshirts rushed to the capital to celebrate their leader. The aim of this essay is to explain the Fascists’ rise to power in Italy. Thus, whilst the highly repressive nature of Fascism cannot be understated, this essay will focus solely on Italy before Mussolini seized control. Why was Italy the first European country to succumb to Fascism? What factors in her development meant that people were willing to toss aside liberal parliamentary democracy…

    Nazi Germany’s obvious political and military ally in Europe was Italy. The Italians had been governed by a fascist regime under Benito Mussolini since 1925. Italian fascism was very much the elder brother of Nazism, a fact Hitler himself acknowledged. Yet for all their ideological similarities, the relationship between Hitler and Mussolini was bumpy and complex. The alignment of their two countries was consequently not as firm as many anticipated. By the late 1930s Germany and Italy had become military allies – however their priorities were still with their own national interests, rather than supporting the interests or ambitions of another country. The union between Nazi Germany and fascist Italy became a marriage of convenience and expedience, rather than a firm alliance of sister states.…

    However, the Renaissance, despite the foundation of humanities and ripple of challenge of religion, did not necessarily mean that Italy would rise like the phoenix from Rome's ashes. In fact, militarily and religiously, quite the opposite happened. The very threadwork on which the pre-Renaissance Europe was based, that is the Roman church, was grossly neglected and as the church lost power and influence, the door was slowly creaked open for the Wars of Religion that were just around the corner. In the city-states, another concept that was rekindled and strengthened by the Renaissance, the political involvement and evolution was completely stinted, and as the political realm lost power, so too did the city-state militaries. Regardless of the impact of the Renaissance on Europe and Italy, regardless of how great society became at the spawning of a "human power" movement, the fact that its stranglehold allowed the Italian military to simply disintegrate while European and Mediterranean hostilities were still rampant must be considered the most important Italy-internal consequence of the movement.…

    In the beginning Italy was not a unified country until the 1860’s which was why at the start of the Renaissance Italy had 250 states. The popes ruled the central Italy, but couldn’t extend their control to the rest of Italy. The Renaissance was strongly supported by the ruling families of the Italian city-states and they employed a lot of the leading artists and scholars at their courts. At the climax of the Renaissance barely any Europeans believed in the Renaissance. For a very long time scholars believed that the modern time of human…
