Answer:

After World War I Germany was obviously on the losing side, and due to the Treaty of Versailles they were extremely in debt and there economy was very unstable. On the other hand Italy was on the winning side of World War I, but didn't receive the rewards they seek and felt cheated out for their efforts. As the Great Depression came around in 1929, both countries struggled to keep up float, due to this the people of Italy and Germany were looking for new solutions and people that could lead them through this. So when Mussolini and Hitler came around with their power to influence the people they basically told them they could fix everything if they were put in power, obviously that worked because they were put into position.
