The Italian Empire
Italy once had the belief that they should gain a huge territory in the world after its empire was built in 1861. The idea was supported by many, including Benito Mussolini. During that time, most empires worldwide were trying to get a piece of Africa under their reign. As it turned out, Italy did get its fair share of Africa and Germany.
World War II saw Mussolini partnering with Hitler to get more land space for his empire. However, the battle was lost, and so was the empire in 1943.

The Soviet Union
The Soviet Union was born after Russia’s Czar Nicholas II rule and controlled approximately one-sixth of its existence. This empire was also the first Marxist-Communist state globally and was one of the most powerful empires. It was also the starting point of the Russian Revolution. The Soviet Union’s leader Joseph Stalin was a dictator of the highest level, and sadly, he created a mess when he allowed the worst human-made famine to hit the nation.
In 1991, Stalin allowed the Soviet Union to host a multi-party election, and since then, it was a disaster for the nation that soon led to its demise.
