Most countries get fooled into allowing people to become their leaders or the fascist leaders merely take over a nation. This happened in both Italy and Germany in the 1920s and 1930s. They had a socialist government in Germany. The NAZI party managed to get Hitler put into the government by getting him elected as the Chancellor (he was like a vice president). When the leader Germany, Hindenburg, died Hitler moved right into his position. The government slowly went to being a fascist dictatorship with totalitarianism and ridiculous oppression.
