I don't know, but that doesn't sound like a place where I would like to live.
I agree that at the first years of his reign and during the war there was much oppression. That happens in every dictatorship. But, there werent few dictators who were loved afterwards.
Franco shared ideas with Hitler, for example but he enjoyed long live as a national leader.
Metaxas is named national hero in Greece. The day he said no to the Italians is celebrated as a national holiday. He too shared ideas with Hitler.
I have read Mein Kampf and discussed it with other reader and, man, sometimes he gives you the idea that he has a point.
