Internal cleansing, like the the genocide of Jews in Nazi Germany. Obviously there was nothing like that, to that great extent in Italy. But was there any internal cleansing at all?In Fascist Italy under Mussolini, was there any INTERNAL CLEANSING?
Pact Of Steel:The Pact of Steel, known formally as the Pact of Friendship and Alliance between Germany and Italy, was an agreement between Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany signed on May 22, 1939, by the foreign ministers of each country and witnessed by Count Galeazzo Ciano for Italy and Joachim von Ribbentrop for Germany.





The Pact consisted of two parts: the first section was an open declaration of continuing trust and cooperation between Germany and Italy while the second, a 'Secret Supplementary Protocol' [1], encouraged a joint military and economic policy. However, members of the Italian government, including the signatory Ciano, were opposed to the Pact


Axis of Blood and Steel:The term ';Axis Powers'; was coined by Mussolini in November 1936 when he spoke of a Rome-Berlin axis in reference to the treaty of friendship signed between Italy and Germany on October 25, 1936. His ';Axis'; with Germany was confirmed when he made another treaty with Germany in May 1939. Mussolini described the relationship with Germany as a ';Pact of Steel';, something he had earlier referred to as a ';Pact of Blood';.





Germany's influence on Italian policy increased, which alarmed many Italian citizens and proved unpopular. King Victor Emanuel III was also wary of this new axis, favouring the more traditional allies of Britain and France. In 1938, Italian soldiers began marching using the German goose step, which Mussolini called the passo romano (';Roman step';). The passing of the Charter of Race in 1938 demonstrated the enormous influence of Hitler over Mussolini, who had always been more interested in cultural superiority rather than racial superiority. These anti-Semitic laws meant that Jews were fired from government jobs and barred from marrying Italian ';Aryans.';In Fascist Italy under Mussolini, was there any INTERNAL CLEANSING?
