Give any two reasons for the rise of Fascism.

Two factors responsible for the emergence of Fascism in Italy and Nazism in Germany were-

1. Dissatisfaction with the Peace Treaties — Italy had much to contribute to the success of the Allies in the War. But Italy could have no valuable addition to her territory. When it came to dividing the spoils of War, her allies deserted her.
   Defeat in the War and conditions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles, made Germans feel ashamed and helpless.
2. Economic Factors — Economic conditions in Italy after the War were very bad. War debts and budget deficits caused lots of difficulty.
   Treaty of Versailles imposed on Germany a huge War Indemnity. The financial crisis forced Germany to borrow recklessly.
