Benithostages. He forcibly exiled hundreds of Slavs from Italy, including five hundred Slav Socities. He outlawed strikes. He also used mass properganda and censorship to further his goals and outlawed ideologies that conficted with his own, he also publically attacked Christianity, arguing (ironically) it didn't allow enough free thought, however he later turned on these views and tried to gain the Churches support, purely to try and increase his popularity. Around 300,000 were killed while under his rule. In 1943, following the Allied invasion, his party turned on him, however Mussolini ignored the council when they voted him out of power, and continued to till he was summoned before King Victore Emmanual III and publically arrested.

Never the less Mussolini did do some good things. He fought the Mafia to the point where in the 30's the mafia in Italy was almost completely crushed with their members either executed, imprisoned, in hiding or having immigrated. When he invaded and conquered Ethiopia he put an end to slavery. In the mid 1930's slavery was still being practiced in Ethiopia against the rules set out by the League of Nations and International Law. When Hitler began the extermination of the Jews Mussolini turned Italian occupied Europe into a safe haven for Jews. It got to the point where leading Nazis complained about his leniency with the Jews. After Italy surrendered in late 1943 he expressed regret for his actions and the mistakes that he made in his life. He and his mistress Clara Petacci was captured and executed by firing squad on April 25, 1945 following a failed attempt to escape.
