"scism arises in Italy in 1919 and then in Germany in the mid-1920s. As a political ideology, fascism exalts the “nation”, the “state” and the “people” (terms which become in effect interchangeable) as the embodiments of the collective will, and proposes to restore the nation to a condition of former, implicity genetic, glory. In Italy, Mussolini sought a return to the glories of the Roman Empire; in Germany, Hitler sought to purify the Aryan Volk; in Japan (in the Showa period, 1926-45), the military elite around Emperor Hirohito advocated a return to Shintoism and the warrior class, the samurai. Since the fascist party incarnates the good of all, under a fascist government it becomes unlawful to consider any kind of social relationship or national future outside the interpretation of the national interest by the party, which in turn is seen as the incarnation of the state’s will. Anything less than total obedience is treason."
i think indeed there's too many ties to the ancient empires to ignore this fact in the light of 'fascism'.
