What was the reason for Benito Mussolini to become the dictator of the Roman Catholic Church?
Mussolini did not have power over the Catholic Church. The central government for the Catholic Church is located at the Vatican in the northwest section of Rome. Italy recognizes it as a separate country and has no power over it.
Mussolini was selected to rule as Prime Minister of Italy and eventually completely ruled the governing body of the country. Italy still retained its royalty. Mussolini had some conflicts with the Catholic Church and he tried to stay in their favor so the people would like him. The Catholic Church and the Fascists government had one thing in common; they did not like the Communists. Mussolini used the fear of Communism to maintain control of the country.
