1. Italy lacked a large colonial empire.

2. Under the Treaty of Versailles, Italy was granted little land.

3. Italian economy was not in a good shape, A Colonial War would distract attention from this.

4. Abyssinia could be a useful market for Italian goods and was a good place to settle Italy's surplus population.

5. Above all, Mussolini glorified War, some suggest he wanted revenge for the defeat of 1896. 6. Basically Italy wanted to be a strong empire, like the Roman Empire

What was Benito Mussolini system of government?

Well, he was part of the National Fascist Party so he did believe in fascism. But as a strong believer of democracy I don't see how that glorifies the state. He was a dictator only interested in glorifying himself and his name. Yes, I agree with the above. Mussolinis' Fascism is a pre runnuer to National Socialism (Naziism) and is designed to glorify Mussolini & his Blackshirts as much as Italy as a whole. Patriotism, while being the last refuge of a scoundrel, is no bad thing. Invading Abyssinia however is a different matter.
