Hitler and Mussolini were able to gain political power because of political/economic problems.

After WW1 Germany had to pay reparations for starting the war. France invaded a big industrial center of Germany. German workers went on strike and the government gave them money but created more marks(German $) in circulation causing inflation. In 1914 4.2 German marks = $1 in 1923 4.2 trillion marks = $1

Unemployment was also high and at one point 40% of German workforce did not have a job. Many turned to radical groups like the Nazis.

In Italy inflation and unemplyoment played a role as well. There was a fear of Communism rising to power in Italy. Mussolini was able to create a police(OVRA) that was able to keep Italy from falling into Communism. and Hitler appealed to the peoples sense of pride through slick speeches . he made groups such as the Hitler youth and he promised changr

Why do fascist countries choose fascist leaders?

Most countries get fooled into allowing people to become their leaders or the fascist leaders merely take over a nation. This happened in both Italy and Germany in the 1920s and 1930s. They had a socialist government in Germany. The NAZI party managed to get Hitler put into the government by getting him elected as the Chancellor (he was like a vice president). When the leader Germany, Hindenburg, died Hitler moved right into his position. The government slowly went to being a fascist dictatorship with totalitarianism and ridiculous oppression. In Italy the people like Benito Mussolini at the beginning. After he showed his true colors and allied with Hitler the people were very upset. They did manage to nab him, execute him and some other leaders. They were able to begin a new government. The allies helped them to drive out the Nazis.

The three major fascist dictatorships in Europe in the 1930s were Hitler's Nazi Germany, Mussolini's Fascist Italy, and Franco's Nationalist Spain. Other countries in Europe were not explicitly fascist, but many of them like Pilsudski's "Republic of Poland" were fascist dictatorships in all but name.
