How good of a leader was Mussolini compared to ancient Roman emperors? I'd say he was Claudius-tier
>>16889021Why is that retarded green haired girl so breedable?

Pretty low, overall. I'd liken him to Caracalla or Commodus.
Maximinus Thrax. They both overthrew weak governments by making lofty promises about a military revival and the destruction of foreign enemies, they both used state power to repress dissent, they both overestimated their military supeiority which got them killed, and they both had their corpses displayed in public after they died.
>>16889021Claudius actually left the Empire with territorial expansion, Mussolini's had the results of the Italian Empire destroyed and the King was deposed because of his "efforts"Not least the possibility that fucking around in the Balkans might have cost moustache man total anti Bolshevik victory
>>16889021He was good, but he was hampered by having to work with subpar material, the Italian army being utterly corrupt and useless.Important to note that Mussolini was opposed to Hitler and tried to form a United front to prevent the Anschluss, only for Britain and France to leave him hanging in the Stresa Front looking like a fool. That and their obstinance over Abyssinia was what got him into Hitler's camp.
>>16889021He used to get drunk and walk the streets with knuck dusters in his all black clothes, he was a literal edgelord but i guess that's what happens when your father is a socialist.
