What type of government did Mussolini create?

Answer 1

Mussolini was the inventor of fascism. This was an attempt to bring back the glory of the Roman Empire (but it didn't work out very well).

Mussolini was not the inventor of fascism. The concept that he put in place he received from Adam Muller. Adam Muller was German publicist, literary critic, political economist, theorist of the state during the mid 19th century. He argued for the return a system similar to feudal system through state run corporations, I say feudal system because that is the closest system to what he was arguing for. It was not run in the same manner. He had an extreme dislike for Adam Smith's classical liberal polices of capitalism. He rejected individualism and believed the state had a responsibility to the individuals that are under their care.

Mussolini implemented Muller's ideas in 1934 when he created 22 distinct corporations to control every aspect of human life and in 1936 created the Corporate Council to oversee the other 22. Fortunately or unfortunately depending on how you look at it we never really got to see if the system functioned in application the same as in theory due to WWII happening.
