In the 1922 elections, the Fascists had only won a few seats. But in an atmosphere of growing unrest - for which the Fascist armed squads in the streets were themselves largely responsible - Mussolini demanded a "strong" government under his own leadership to set matters straight, and he supported that claim by having his supporters march on Rome. When the King refused to give his Prime Minister the "State of Emergency" powers to stop the Fascists, the Prime Minister abdicated, and the King offered the job to Mussolini.
