Question

How did benito mussolini gain the support of the catholic church

Answer 1

Regardless of his dictatorship, Benito Mussolini has to establish good relations with the Catholic Church since the institution remains very powerful and influential in Italy at that time. To gain its support, he had a religious Catholic wedding with his wife and had his children baptised. He also supported the Catholic concept that women should stay at home to look after their family while their husbands go to work.
