What is italy's problems after the First World War?Show answer
Italy had fought on the winning side, but it came out of the war angry and unstable. At the peace settlement it received less territory than it had been promised, and nationalists spoke bitterly of a "mutilated victory". The war had also damaged the economy, leaving unemployment, rising prices and many discontented ex-soldiers.
