In 1922, Benito Mussolini (a.k.a. "Il Duce"), leader of the Fascist party, organized a March on Rome with 26.000 followers. This massive display of political support convinced the King to grant him power as prime minister. Mussolini consolidated his authority by gaining the upper hand over both King and Pope. Having grasped the importance of images, he staged a cult of personality in which he presented himself as the epitome of virility. He engaged in colonial wars, the Spanish civil war and, in 1937, formed an alliance with the Axis powers: Hitler's Nazi regime and Hirohito's Imperial Japan. In 1940, he led Italy into World War II.

Keefe at al, Area Handbook for Italy (Washington, D.C.: Foregin Area Studies of the American University, 1977), pp. 28-33] Italy and World War I Italy, an economically underdeveloped country, was late in entering Europe's scramble for overseas possessions, but Prime Minister Francesco Crispi pursued a determined expansionist policy in the 1880s and 1890s to ensure Italy's place among the European colonial powers. Crispi was not contented with the two strips of desertÑin Eritrea and SomaliaÑon the Horn of Africa, acquired in 1889; but an attempt to penetrate Ethiopia in 1896 was ended by the military disaster at Adowa. Imperialism remained an aspect of Italy's foreign policy, and Italy's colonial holdings increased with the occupation of Libya and the Read More Go to Site FOCUS on ITALY - History Votes:0 HISTORY of ITALY A s a nation state, Italy has emerged only in 1871. Until then the country was politically divided into a large number of independant cities, provinces and islands. The currently available evidences point out to a dominant Etruscan, Greek and Roman cultural influence on today's Italians. T he earliest human settlements within the territory of present-day Italy date almost certainly to the initial phase of the Quaternary era (Pleistocene). This period was characterized by frequent alternation in climatic conditions, with consequent phases of expansion and retreat in the Alpine and Apennine glaciers and relative variations in sea level. W ith the Iron Age Italy and her population practically enter the historical period. Until the end of 5th century A.D. Italy was dominated a Read More Go to Site fwkc.com Votes:0 This page requires frames Read More Go to Site fwkc.com Votes:0 This page requires frames Read More Go to Site GI -- World War II Commemoration Votes:0 Benito Mussolini BENITO MUSSOLINI, (1883-1945), Fascist dictator of Italy from 1922 to 1943. He centralized all power in himself as the leader ( il duce ) of the Fascist party and attempted to create an Italian empire, ultimately in alliance with HITLER 's Germany. The defeat of Italian arms in WORLD WAR II brought an end to his imperial dream and led to his downfall. Mussolini was born in Predappio, near Forli, in Romagna, on July 29, 1883. His father, Alessandro, was a blacksmith, and his mother, Rosa, was a schoolteacher. Like his father, Benito became a fervent socialist. He qualified as an elementary schoolmaster in 1901. In 1902 he emigrated to Switzerland. Unable to find a permanent job there and arrested for vagrancy, he was expelled and returned to Italy to do his military service Read More Go to Site Giuseppe Garibaldi Speech - Encouraging His Soldiers Votes:0 Giuseppe Garibaldi (1807-1882) was an Italian patriot and military leader who helped free the Italians from foreign rule and unify the country. He was a master of guerrilla warfare and raised volunteers beginning in 1848 to conduct daring military campaigns to overcome the rule of Austria. In 1860, Garibaldi's thousand "red shirts" took Sicily in the name of Victor Emmanuel II of Italy. Thousands of volunteers then rushed to join Garibaldi's army. In August, he crossed to the mainland to march on Naples, where he was greeted by jubilant crowds singing the national anthem, now known as "Garibaldi's Hymn." After turning over the city to Victor Emmanuel II, Garibaldi resumed a humble life on the island of Caprera. The speech below is an eloquent appeal he made to his soldi Read More Go to Site Heraldry in Pre-Unification Italy Votes:0 Heraldry in Pre-Unification Italy See also Arnaud Bunel's illustrated armory of Italian territories .

Until the completion of national unification, the means by which Italy would be unified was a major issue for liberals and nationalists. After unification, politicians, historians, and political commentators of all sorts examined the process of unification to illustrate the glories of their contemporary society or to explain its failures. In Italian, risorgimento literally means resurgence. But the historical sense is one of rebirth. But of what? Its champions variously hoped for independence from foreign rule, the development of national self-consciousness, national unity, a renewal of morality in government, and eventual national greatness.

In the Oath of Pontida the communes, which until that time had followed conflicting political interests, supposedly swore to stand together against Barbarossa.

WHISKER: Italian Fascism: An Interpretation Votes:0 Italian Fascism: An Interpretation JAMES B. WHISKER When the Grand Council of Fascism on 25 July 1943 removed Benito Mussolini from his position as head of government, fascism ended in Italy. Its ending was as surprising as its beginning, when, on 28 March 1922, some 300,000 Blackshirts under Mussolini's command seized the Italian state. The events between those dates can be chronicled. The explanation of what had transpired is much more elusive. Fascism was touted by Mussolini as a unique combination of thought and action, yet fascism was still seeking an ideology after the Second World War was over. The roots of fascism are many and complex.[1] The fascist leadership, notably Mussolini, admitted the multi-faceted influences of liberalism, marxism, syndicalism, risorgimento , socialism, c Read More Go to Site Kingdom of Italy - Ministerial Flags (1923-1945) Votes:0 This page is part of © FOTW Flags Of The World website Kingdom of Italy - Ministerial Flags (1923-1945) Last modified: 2002-11-30 by dov gutterman Keywords: italy | italia | world war ii | prime minister | fasces | fascist | Links: FOTW homepage | search | disclaimer and copyright | write us | mirrors Prime Minister and Chief of Government's Flag State Minister's Flag, except Navy and Air Ministers State Subsecretary's Flag, except Navy and Air Subsecretaries More Fascist Italy Symbols See also : Italy Kingdom of Italy (1848-1946) Kingdom of Italy - Rank Flags Repubblica Sociale Italiana Prime Minister and Chief of Government's Flag by Santiago Dotor , 31 March 2000 Benito Mussolini had a blue flag with the fasces on it as his personal flag of office.

Renaissance scholars identified major sites and buildings. They began the great effort of copying the ancient inscriptions that made the city itself a vast, if fragmentary, textbook about Roman history and life. By the middle of the fifteenth century, scholars in the curia--like the brilliant architect Leon Battista Alberti and the erudite scholar Flavio Biondo -- knew the ancient city better than anyone had for a thousand years.

Anglia Polytechnic University, cambridge Summary: 'The Cult of the Duce' - the cultivation of Mussolini's image as the leader and ruler of Fascist Italy - was a very complex phenomenon. It also differed in some very important ways from the leadership cults in two other totalitarian states between the wars, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. But the most serious difference was that Mussolini had rivals, representing influential, non-Fascist forces in Italian society. Eventually, these rivals eclipsed Mussolini in popularity among the Italian people. T he leadership cult in Fascist Italy, or the 'cult of the Duce' as it is better known, the word 'Duce' being the Italian equivalent of the German Read More Go to Site Plague Votes:0 The Coming of the Plague to Italy In 1334 an epidemic which would eventually kill two-thirds of China's inhabitants struck the northeastern Chinese province of Hopei, claiming up to 90% of the population - some 5,000,000 people.

In 1346, the Plague came to Kaffa , a Genoese cathedral city and a port central to the successful Genoese trade industry located on the Crimean Peninsula of the Black Sea.
