The Crusades were a series of religious wars sanctioned by the Latin Church in the medieval period. The most commonly known Crusades are the campaigns in the Eastern Mediterranean aimed at recovering the Holy Land from Muslim rule, but the term "Crusades" is also applied to other church-sanctioned campaigns
Hitler and Mussolini were more similar than different. Here is a list of reasons why this is the case.
1) Both rose to power during a time of crisis/instability- Hitler rose through the political ranks after the Germany economy suffered terribly due to the conditions of the Treaty of Versailles. Mussolini also rose to power at the same time, thanks to the instability of the Italian government.
2) Both eliminated other political parties- Mussolini and Hitler both got rid of their political opposition through force during their reigns.
3) Both censored the media- Controlling the media is one way in which both controlled their societies. By showing themselves in the best possible light, Hitler and Mussolini gained support from their citizens.
4) Both were totalitarian leaders- This meant that both men had complete control over their respective countries.
