Here's a cut from wiki about the precursors to fascism.
Fascism's rise was fueled by the aftermath of World War I, economic hardship, and political instability, leading to the emergence of strongman leaders who promised order and national revival, ultimately resulting in totalitarian regimes in Italy and Germany.
Here's a more detailed look at the events and factors that paved the way for fascism:
1. Post-World War I Disillusionment and Economic Hardship:
Treaty of Versailles:
The harsh terms imposed on Germany after World War I, including territorial losses and crippling reparations, created widespread resentment and instability.
Economic Depression:
The Great Depression of the 1930s exacerbated existing economic problems, leading to mass unemployment, hyperinflation, and social unrest, making people vulnerable to extremist ideologies.
Political Instability:
Weak and ineffective governments struggled to address the crisis, further fueling public disillusionment and paving the way for authoritarian leaders who promised strong leadership and decisive action.
