The word "fascist" originated from the Italian fasci, which means "bundles" or "fascines." In the early 20th century, Italian dictator Benito Mussolini founded the Fasci di Combattimento, a militant fascist party that was formed from the remnants of the Italian socialist movement. The term "fascist" was coined in 1919, and it was originally used to describe the radical right-wing ideology and tactics of Mussolini's party. Over time, the term evolved to describe other authoritarian and nationalist movements that emerged in Europe during the interwar period. The word "fascist" is often associated with authoritarianism, racism, and militarism, and is used to describe political movements and ideologies that are characterized by a strong centralized power, suppression of individual rights, and a belief in the superiority of a particular group or nation.
