Definition: a political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regiment, and forcible suppression of opposition (Webster’s)

History: Fascism was developed in Italy and other European nations after 1919 as a reaction to the political and social changes brought by the first World War, and the spread of socialism and communism. Fascism is a way that people become subordinate to a totalitarian dictator. The first fascist dictator of Italy was Benito Mussolini in 1922-1943. Between 1933 and 1945 Germany had its own fascist dictator in Adolf Hitler. Fascism spread because of the hurting economy in Europe. After the fall of the Kaiser in Germany the people of Germany were left with a country in shambles. This had the people struggling to find a leader. After the treaty of Versailles Germany was very upset with the deal they were given and the held the pseudo government to blame. This led the way to the fascist dictators.
