France Devastated by WWI Economic hardship Political chaos High unemployment, gov’t nearly bankrupt Political chaos No party could get a majority Horrors of War 50% of men ages 18-32 killed in war

Italy Resented Treaty of Versailles Did not give enough rewards to Italy High unemployment and inflation Political and economic chaos led to the election of Mussolini and his Fascist government in 1924.
