Hirohito(Japan)-He gained power after his father passed away. He was a very strong leader much like his grandfather. Was known for hardly ever speaking,when he did speak it meant that he was displeased with something. He really didn't have much involvement in WW2 in order to preserve himself, but he just ended up leaving his people wondering if he really cared. He usually just allowed Tojo to make all military decisions. The one thing that he really did during WW2 was decide to surrender after the dropping of both atomic bombs. He lost power in 1989 when he died of cancer.

Mussolini(Italy)- Came to power in 1922 in Italy during desperate times and ensure people through his speeches that everything would go back to normal once he was in power. When War broke out Mussolini did not have the the weapons or man power to go to war by himself so he joined forces with Hitler. Lost power when he was shot and killed. His body was hung in the center of a city as a warning sign to other fascist and also to confirm that he was dead.
