Nazism Vs. Fascism

1. Both Italian Fascism and German Nazism focused on rebuilding the economy and expanding to gain back the land they had lost in the war.
2. Both have supreme rulers who decide what is best for the country.
3. Both have an extreme sense of nationalism.
4. Both have been given the raw end of the stick in accordance to the Versailles treaty.
5. Both leaders were amazing orators and, through a simple nationalistic speech, get you to do anything.

1. I think that Fascism would appeal to younger audiences more because it focuses more upon the political part than the ethical part...like killing jews.
2. Fascism focuses more on nationalism and causes extreme militarism and I think that is the only downfall the Italians might have had with it. Also, this militarism would only hurt the economy because there would be no workers.
3. The eradication of the Jews definitely. I am sure there were many Germans who felt that the Eradication of the jews was unnecessary, but the power of Hitler forced them to quiet themselves.
