188 Words1 Pages
Mussolini was born July 29, 1883 in Predappio Italy(BBC). As a child, he was a big socialist because of the influence of his father. He also was a violent child and got in many fights. He was expelled for stabbing another child in the hand at age 10(Jesse Greenspan). Even though he wasn't well behaved he was very smart, and went on to get his teaching certificate. He moved to Switzerland to promote socialist movements in 1902, but two years later he came back to Italy(Bio.com). In fall of 1915 he was drafted into the Italian army. He lost interest in socialism and in spring of 1919, he started a Fascist party called the Black Shirts. The members of the party were mostly unemployed war veterans. In 1921 they became a part of the coalition government.
