*Hitler's chief ally, [http://real-life-villains.wikia.com/wiki/Benito_Mussolini Benito Mussolini], appointed Jews to government jobs before he became more of a puppet as the war dragged on and accepted a sword from an Algerian leader, at least showing a facade of respect for local culture despite his wishes for a new Roman Empire. This, of course, makes some sense as the Roman Empire was culturally bigoted rather then racially bigoted. A black man even served as a General in the Italian Army, which was incredibly unique given the time period. The underlying reason though was that it to helped maintain an effective empire. Mussolini fought the [http://real-life-villains.wikia.com/wiki/Mafia Mafia] to the point where in the 30's, the Italian Mafia was almost completely crushed with their members either executed, imprisoned, in hiding or having immigrated to America. After Mussolini restored order to a reel­ing Italy in the 1920s, British Prime Minister [http://real-life-heroes-and-good-guys.wikia.com/wiki/Winston_Churchill <u>Winston Churchill</u>] even praised him saying that Mussolini’s fas­cism ‘had ren­dered ser­vice to the whole world,’ while Il Duce him­self was a "Roman genius.” When Mussolini invaded and conquered Ethiopia, he had put an end to slavery there. 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 [http://real-life-villains.wikia.com/wiki/Adolf_Hitler Hitler] began the extermination of the Jews, Mussolini turned Italian-occupied Europe into a safe haven for Jews, although anti-Jewish laws were in place, he refused to deport them to concentration camps. 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 had made in his life.
