Fascism is a political system that believes that the nation is more important then any individual. A dictator rules the nation and imposes economic and social regimentation.  It is often an autocratic system that has a militarized government backed up by popular militias.  Special salutes to the dictator are also common. Equally common in Fascist societies is strict information control, such as the "people's radio" in Nazi Germany which delivered only one channel of propaganda, 24/7. Allowing only information which supports the state is a common means of fascist control.

The name "fascism" derives from an ancient Roman symbol, the ''[[fasces]],'' a group of birch rods bundled together with an axe. It symbolizes strength in unity; the rods are weak by themselves but strong when bundled together.
