Compare and contrast the role of violence in the German and Italian cases during the Inter War Period .

The following discussion will compare and contrast the role of violence in the German and Italian cases specifically the regimes of Hitler and Mussolini. In many respects there was a great deal of ideological common ground between these two extreme right wing regimes despite Nazi Germany having far more military capability than Fascist Italy. The Nazi regime as will be examined not only held a greater capacity for violence it had a more marked tendency to use it.
Italian fascism and German national socialism gained positions of power in many ways because of economic, political, and social disintegration in their respective countries in the wake of the First World War.
