What was one reason that Mussolini failed to make Italy a military power?
ChuckSiata
Because the Italian military establishment and himself didn't open their minds
about the evolution in the art of war, technologies, armaments etc. in progress after the WW1. They remained pinned down to obsolete theories, insisting to give the priority to the mass rather than to the means. In other words, Mussolini aimed to hold an external magnificent appearance of great powerful nation, rather than taking advantage of the lesson he should have learnt by the War of Abissinia and that of Spain. In so doing he gambled on a risky play that the Nation was not fit to carry on, with the well known disastrous outcome.
It should be also noted that Italy at the time lacked access, in a major way, to Natural Resources, nor did they have the funds to simply "buy" them.
