Mussolini had a great affinity for the Roman Empire and he wanted to revive it in the modern age as much as possible. It was not the only time a dictator has looked to the past in order to give his regime a perception of historical legitimacy. Hitler did it with the heroic German myths, and the Japanese did it with the samurai tradition.
