Benito+Mussolini

By Joshua
Benito Mussolini was born in the small town of Predappio on July 29 1883. His family was poor and had a tiny two room apartment. The food was scarce for the three kids. Even though Mussolini was violent at school he passed his final exams and became a teacher before fleeing to Switzerland to avoid the Italian armed forces.In 1904 Mussolini returned to Italy where he became involved with radical socialist politics. Mussolini joined the army and marched off to fight his future allies [ Germany and Austria]. He soon made an alliance with Hitler. He wanted to create a new Italy where socialism would be wrong!
