This was an event that signified Mussolini taking over the government on 31 October 1922.

After a period of riots and the threat of civil war, Mussolini demanded the formation of a Fascist government to restore order. On 29 October 1922, King Victor Emmanuel II invited Mussolini to come to Rome to take power. The 'march' was a Propaganda used by Mussolini to enlarge his popularity.
