Mussolini was known for his ability to orate effectively, and he often addressed crowds of followers from the balcony above Piazza Venezia, the public square where throngs of Italians gathered to hear him speak. From this balcony, the fascist dictator delivered some of his most famous speeches that would change history, including the declaration of the Italian Empire in 1936 and the declaration of war against France and Britain in 1940.
