Benito Mussolini

Benito Mussolini was a fascist dictator in Italy during the 1930s. (AUDIO: The Rapture) Like Adolf Hitler, Mussolini rose to power with the help of his charisma. He had a distinctive, angled chin which helped to project this charisma. (PROSE: Warchild) He was, however, regarded as a "fatso" by people in the United Kingdom. (PROSE: Players)

He was able to keep trains running on time, by keeping the clocks running a few minutes fast (PROSE: Instruments of Darkness) and by always keeping the lights on at the stations. (PROSE: Parallel 59) Mussolini expressed that ruling Italy was easy but utterly pointless. He had a vision of returning Italy to greatness. He allied himself with Hitler's Nazis, for which Edward Greyhaven branded him a "fool". (PROSE: The Dying Days)

In 1936, Winston Churchill tried to warn people about the danger both Hitler's Germany and Mussolini's Italy posed to Europe. (PROSE: Players) However, his warning went unheeded. (PROSE: Log 384)

Mussolini's armies invaded Albania in 1939. (PROSE: Deadly Reunion) Later, they marched into the Democratic Republic. (PROSE: The Earwig Archipelago) They also engaged the Allies in the Sahara Desert (PROSE: The Dying Days) alongside the Germans in 1941. (COMIC: The Instruments of War)

Mussolini's own people eventually rose up against him and a mob strung him to a lamp post. (PROSE: The Dying Days) He was executed on 28 April 1945. (PROSE: Just War)
