fascist era

Authoritarian historical period

The fascist era refers to the period of fascist rule in a country, most commonly Italy under Mussolini (1922–1943) or the broader European period when fascist regimes held power.

The phrase often appears in historical and architectural contexts: buildings from the fascist era, policies dating to the fascist era.

In Italian contexts, it's sometimes capitalized as a proper historical period.
