The Lateran Pacts of 1929 gave the Pope sovereign rights to a state of his own in the Vatican City, this would have given him independance from the Kingdom of Italy and would have shown the world that he was not under Mussolini's control. Il Duce had to give up ever attaining a complete totalitiarian, secular state with the Pacts, however what they did do was eliminate the Catholic Church as a political rival, making them dissolve the PPI and the Catholic Scout Movement. The Pope didn't completely support Mussolini afterwards anyway, they still conflicted over the suppression of Catholic Action and the racial laws of 1938.
