How did Mussolini maintain to be a powerful dictator yet remain to be a puppet of Hitler?
by using techniques that other dictarors used before him. You are correct---he can't be both at the same time. The reason is Mussolini came to power in 1922 and served for several years, even before Hitler came to power. Germany and Italy signed a Pact to be allies and equal. However, during their face-to-face meetings, Hitler always seemed to dominate the conversation. The Italians started colonial war in North AFrica in 1935. By 1941, the Italian citizens and the army was tired of war. As the war continued in the Mediterranean and Italy began to suffer from naval and air attacks, Mussolini grew weaker. When the Allies invaded Sicily in July 1943, the supporters of the King of Italy began to secretly meet to discuss surrender. Finally, in August, the government simply voted Mussolini out of office. That is when the Germans sent in more troops to take control of Italy and began fighting the Allies on the Italian mainland. They rescued Mussolini from his "prison" and set him up as head of state of what was Fascist Italy---which was really only the land north of Rome. It wasn't long before Mussolini had no army and no power under his command.

Benito Mussolini was dictator of Italy during the second World War. He banned all other political parties in Italy except his own, the Facist Party. A famous quote about him was: "He made the trains run on time."
Tyranny is the rule by a single authoritative person. Tyrants were appointed in some Greek city-states, including Athens, by popular assent to replace aristocrats who ruled a city-state for their own benefit. However, the tyrant had to have a bodyguard to protect him from attempts by the aristocracy to assassinate him, and to pay the bodyguard he had to levy a tax, which made him less popular. When people's memories of how bad it had been under the aristocracy faded, they would get rid of the tyrant and either revert to the aristocrats or get the idea of a democracy in which they themselves held power.
