Dictatorships in the 20th Century V
Benito Mussolini
Benito Mussolini is born in1883 in the Romagna, a region of farmers and labourers, and grows up in an Italy where the economic crisis determines people’s lives. This leads to mass emigrations in the south and also in the better developed areas of the north, the situation escalates. In 1911 unemployment reaches a record high throughout the entire country.
The most important event in 1911 is the Libyan war. In the hope of solving their social problems, the Italians occupy the provinces of Tripolitania and Cyrenaica, which belong to the Ottoman Empire, in September. On 4th October, they enter Tripoli. Instead of the hoped for easy military exercise, a long and cruel war ensues. All over Italy, a strong revolutionary movement rises against this battle for conquest.

Blogging
The weblog or blog, for short, as a medium is not much older than this century. Blogs came into being in the World Wide Web as ’messages from below’, as web pages from web creators who wanted to share their view of the world with the world. They are short notes, long texts, pictures, videos, which are posted loosely and at random intervals to the world for an undefined public.
Air Traffic
Being able to fly has been a dream of humanity from time immemorial. But it does not even date back a century that people actually started being able to travel through the air. Since the 1960s, the number of flight passengers has been constantly increasing. Thus, the airspace is no longer dominated by birds but by man-made flying objects.
