Best Answer

Fascism in the literal sense was an attempt by Benito Mussolini to resurrect the Roman Empire. The ruthless, might-makes-right philosophy of the Roman Empire is at the heart of fascism. The element of extreme racism was added by the Nazis in Germany, as well as the Imperial Japanese. But the term fascism is derived from a symbol of the Roman Empire (that symbol being a bundle of sticks with an axe in the center, called a fasces; it never became as well known as the Nazi swastika).
