Even though he was the dictator of Italy, Victor Emmanuel III still remained the soverign king of Italy. During his Dictatorship, Mussolini changed his leaders in order to keep control. He also worried that others were trying to over-throw him, so he began to take control of some of their duties himself. Count Galeazzo Ciano, Mussolini's son-in-law, was the minister of Foriegn Affairs. He cleared the way for a meeting between the Italy and Germany that lead to the secret pact. He is seen in many photos with Mussolini. At the end of the war, Mussolini was captured and executed by the Communist partisans. They selected 15 others to be executed.
