How did benito mussolini become prime minister of italy?

enito Mussolini came to power in 1922. At first, he ruled in a democratic and constitutional manner, but in 1925, he turned Italy into a one-party, totalitarian state, with himself as sole leader. He would forcefully govern Italy until 1943 when the Allied invasion of the country led to his downfall. His rise to power was remarkable. He went from being a journalist and a minor political figure to becoming prime minister of Italy within the space of five years. His remarkable rise was abetted by the fear of a communist revolution and that allowed Mussolini and his fascist party to seize power, with little opposition.
