The Fasci Autonomi d'Azione Rivoluzionaria (English: Autonomous League of Revolutionary Action) was founded in November 1914 by Benito Mussolini.[1] On 11 December 1914, the Fasci Autonomi d'Azione Rivoluzionaria and the Fasci d'Azione Internazionalista merged into the Fasci d'Azione Rivoluzionaria led by Mussolini.[2]

Due to Mussolini's support of Italian intervention in the then-ongoing World War I, this enabled him to raise funds from Ansaldo (an armaments firm) and other companies to create the newspaper Il Popolo d'Italia, first published in November 1914, to convince socialists and revolutionaries to support the war.[3]
