Hitler had patterned his Nazism on Fascism a new political movement founded in Italy under the leadership of Benito Mussolini. The fascists were strong going to Rome and destroyed democratic government. Mussolini deserted the Socialist Party in 1914 to cross over to the enemy camp, the Italian middle class. He knew that World War I (1914–18) would bury the old Europe, and he began to prepare for "the unknown." In late 1914 he founded an independent newspaper, Popolo d'Italia, and backed it up with his own movement, the Autonomous Fascists.
