Answer In July 1943, the Allies landed on Sicily after they had defeated the Germans & Italians in North Africa. Sicily is part of Italy, not just a colony. This was also the time that the Allies began to fly bombing missions over Italy's mainland and also over Rome. The Italians did not want to fight anymore and did not want the war to come to their homeland. With support from the King Emmanuel, the cabinet met and forced Mussolini to resign during the campaign for Sicily. The Italian government tried to secretly negotiate an alliance with the Allies and not let the Germans know what they were doing. The leaders of the Allies would not allow Italy to join them but required their surrender. When the Allied invasion force was heading to land at Salerno on 8 Sept, Italy agreed and announced their surrender.

The Allies had relatively little to do with it. Soundly defeated in North Africa, Mussolini began to be deeply doubted by his own inner circle - and by that same time, the average Italian had come to despise him. He was relieved of his command and office, and at the very end of the war tracked down and shot by Italian partisans.

How did Mussolini maintain to be a powerful dictator yet remain to be a puppet of Hitler?
by using techniques that other dictarors used before him. You are correct---he can't be both at the same time. The reason is Mussolini came to power in 1922 and served for several years, even before Hitler came to power. Germany and Italy signed a Pact to be allies and equal. However, during their face-to-face meetings, Hitler always seemed to dominate the conversation. The Italians started colonial war in North AFrica in 1935. By 1941, the Italian citizens and the army was tired of war. As the war continued in the Mediterranean and Italy began to suffer from naval and air attacks, Mussolini grew weaker. When the Allies invaded Sicily in July 1943, the supporters of the King of Italy began to secretly meet to discuss surrender. Finally, in August, the government simply voted Mussolini out of office. That is when the Germans sent in more troops to take control of Italy and began fighting the Allies on the Italian mainland. They rescued Mussolini from his "prison" and set him up as head of state of what was Fascist Italy---which was really only the land north of Rome. It wasn't long before Mussolini had no army and no power under his command.

What is some general knowledge about Italy in World War 2?
Italy fought on Germany's side throughout most of the war, although was a significantly weaker power. The country was led by Benito Mussolini, the leader of the "fascist" dictatorship that wanted to create a "New Roman Empire". Mussolini had originally been Hitler's role model; after Hitler seized power it was the other way round.Prior to the war, Italy had attacked and conquered Ethiopa as part of the beginning of Mussolini's empire building. Italy did not enter the conflict until nine months after Britain and France declared war on Germany, and by this time France had almost fallen. Italy attempted to attack Greece alone but failed. Instead, it joined with the Germans in their successful invasions of Yugoslavia and Greece.In Africa, Italy tried to attack Egypt to get control of the Suez Canal, but Britain successfully pushed them back into Libya. Germany were forced to intervene and this fatally delayed their invasion of Russia. They chased the British back into Egypt, but after the Battle of El Alamein, they too were driven back.By May 1943, when the Italians surrendered in Tunisia, Mussolini had lost the empire and worse was to follow. Two months later, the Allies invaded Sicily. Mussolini's support evaporated and the Grand Council of Fascism kicked him out of office. In September that year, the Allies landed in mainland Italy. At the time, Mussolini was rescued by the Germans and escaped captivity.Naples was liberated the following month, but Allied progress up the peninsula was initially slower after that. Rome was liberated in June 1944. By this time, Mussolini was in the north attempting to organise and defend against the Allies, while Italian Partisans began to harass the Italian and German defenders.The Spring Offensive of 1945 saw the Allies successfully attack northern Italy and Mussolini's attempt to start a new government collapsed. Mussolini tried to escape to Switzerland but was caught and shot by Partisans. They put his body on display by hanging it upside-down from a petrol station in Milan.I advise you to read about the "Facismo", their leader Benito Mussolini and his relationship with Hitler and the Third Reich's ideas. Anyway, the subject can be very grim...no
