Mussolini did not surrender, he was removed from office by the Grand Fascist Council, arrested, and later freed by German special forces led by Otto Skorzeny. He was then made leader of the Italian Social Republic in the north, until his murder at the hands of communist partisans towards the end of the war.

First axis power defeated in World War 2?

On September 8th 1943, Italy rose against Mussolini and formed the "Kingdom Of Italy" however, 14 days later on September 22nd, Mussolini and his followers formed the RSI or Italian Social Republic in order to continue their fight. When Mussolini was killed on April 25th 1945 the Italian Social Republic surrendered on April 29th. Three days later Berlin was captured and Germany fell. So in truth while Italy did surrender first they in reality didn't surrender in 1943 but in fact 1945.

What events led to Mussolini's downfall?

Mussolini's downfall was primarily precipitated by Italy's military failures during World War II, particularly the disastrous campaigns in North Africa and the invasion of the Soviet Union. His alliance with Nazi Germany increasingly isolated Italy and led to widespread discontent. In July 1943, Mussolini was ousted from power by the Grand Council of Fascism, and later arrested by King Victor Emmanuel III. Following Italy's surrender to the Allies in September 1943, Mussolini was rescued by German forces but ultimately captured and executed by Italian partisans in April 1945.
