#Postwonie #History Hello! In this episode of the Powojnie series, I became interested in the topic of Italy after World War II. The country that was ruled by Benito Mussolini for many years, cooperating with the Third Reich, quickly became an ally of the Allies after the war. Why did this happen? You will find the answer in this episode. In the first elections after 1945, the communists in Italy won as much as 18% of the votes. This was a record result by Western European standards. Their leader was Palmiro Togliatti, who openly declared his sympathy for the Soviet Union. Thanks to the great election result, the Italian communists even got into the government. Togliatti became the Minister of Justice. How did the communists convince the Italians? You will find out in a moment. Most of the materials used in the film come from the public domain. I would like to thank the patrons of the Powojnie channel! Thanks to you, I can continue creating my films. https://patronite.pl/powojnie And now I invite you to watch the latest episode of the Powojnie series.
