Benito Mussolini became powerful around 1932. Mussolini's rise to power began in World War One when he was involved with Italy on behalf of the Allies. There were many problems about whether or not such involvement was necessary and the Socialist Party opposed the addition of Italian Arms to the forces of the Allies. Benito Mussolini, a Socialist journalist, originally agreed with his party in regards to the war, but a few months after the start of the war he changed his opinion and left the Socialist Party. After leaving the Socialist Party he founded a fascist newspaper, Popola d'Italia, and several fascist groups, the Autonomous Fascists, the Constituent Fascists, the Revolutionary Fascists, and the Fighting Fascists.
Adolf Hitler tried to take over the government many times but failed.After his time spent in prison, he figured out a way to overthrow the government. instead of taking power by force, he used the constitutional way. he used the democratic system and won hearts by giving rallies and giving speeches, changing their mind-set and having the people go on his side.

After the war the German Workers' Party was formed by Anton Drexler, along with six other members. The german authorities sent Hitler to investigate the party, however the party decided to invite hitler to join after being impressed by his speaking ability. Hitler joined the party in September 1919, and he became the propaganda boss. The party was renamed the National Socialist German Workers’ Party on February 24, 1920. Hitler then replaced the leader Drexler and became the party leader on July 29, 1921.
While leader hitler tried to gain support of the german public however because times in germany were getting better they were satisfied with the government and didnt wanna hear about his racial ideas. Hitler then began raising an army and invading surronding countries without being stopped. Hitler was also charismatic and he was the "light at the end of the tunnel" . Hitler instiled hope and fear in the people . Mostly fear . Evil people become leaders because they instil fear in people .

Mussolini's rise to power was rapid; his Fascist Party Blackshirts marched into Rome in 1922, a year before Hitler's failed first attempt to seize power, the Munich Beer Hall Putch, landed the German in prison.
By the time Hitler became the Fuehrer (Leader) of Germany, Mussolini had been "IL DUCE" (Leader) of Italy for more than ten years. He had been successful in improving the Italian economy and bringing stability,as it was said, "He made the trains run on time" (by shooting someone if they didn't). His ambition was to regain for Italy the prestige and power.
