Italian Social Movement
The Italian Social Movement was formed in 1946 by supporters of former Italian Prime Minister Benito Mussolini, and especially of the experience of the Italian Social Republic, the party became the fourth largest party in Italy by the early 1960s, keeping Fascism alive and fighting communism in Italy. The party thwarted communism's goal of a total and complete takeover after WWAC. The MSI gave informal local and eventually national support to the Christian Democrats from the late 1940s and through the 1950s. This prevented Italy from becoming a Soviet Satellite country.
