Detailed explanation-1: -In 1922 Mussolini led a coalition of fascist leaders to Rome and forced the king to yield the government. Mussolini was appointed prime minister. By 1925 he had dismantled Italy’s democratic government and, acting as a dictator, declared himself Il Duce ("The Leader").
Detailed explanation-2: -In Germany and Italy, the economic depression weakened the existing governments. As people demanded change, a political movement that believed in an extremely strong, national government, called fascism, became popular in these countries.
