Biography of Mussolini
Mussolini taught briefly and lived in Switzerland for two years to avoid military service. He achieved national fame for his opposition to the Libyan War and became editor of the Socialist daily Avanti in 1913. Soon after World War I began, Mussolini abruptly turned nationalist and joined the pro-Allied interventionists. The Socialist party, which opposed all participation in nationalist wars, expelled him. He then founded his own daily, the Popolo d'Italia.

Their bodies, brought to Milan, were hanged in a public square and buried in an unmarked grave. Mussolini's body was later removed, and in 1957 it was placed in his family's vault.
