What were Mussolini's beliefs during World War 2?

Answer 1

Mussolini was a dreamer. He had the notion that Italy would bring the Roman Empire back into existence. He admired the fascist government of the Third Reich. He chose to ally himself (never mind that the Italians did not want to ally themselves with the Nazi Germans) with Adolf Hitler and the Nazis. He did not however agree with the the killing of the Jews. He thought he could expand the Italian Empire with the aid of the Nazis. He started by invading the nation of Abyssinia now known as Ethiopia. The Nazis did help him and he had his military help the Nazis.

The Nazis came to Italy and basically took over. They used their Nazi bully tactics on the Italians. The Italians were not afraid to resist or fight back. Some Italians were forced into the military and had to fight the Allied Forces when they really wanted to be part of the Allied Force. Eventually, the Italians were able to kill Mussolini and work with the Allied Forces.
