Fascism is the end result of capitalism without liberty. It is an autocratic system used by people who have large amounts of power or capital to protect their self-interests from communism or populist events surrounding economic depressions.

A reactionary movement by the privileged class (usually white people) against cultural progression. It starts as hatred for leftist culture (political correctness, diversity, fair distribution of resources) and grows as a political movement. This movement usually will push forward authoritarian leaders who will take that anger and fear to limit freedoms and consolidate power within the elite in the name of "security"(the wealthy, the corporations, the military, and the politically connected). Scapegoating a minority class (usually immigrants or people of different religious beliefs) will be used to deceive those who are not elite but believe they are being "attacked". History shows this movement goes one of two ways: pushing further right to eventual military dictatorship or oligarchy, or a revolt pushing left expanding powers and opportunity to all others.

The only official definition of Fascism comes from Benito Mussolini, the founder of fascism, in which he outlines three principles of a fascist philosophy.
1."Everything in the state". The Government is supreme and the country is all-encompasing, and all within it must conform to the ruling body, often a dictator.
2."Nothing outside the state". The country must grow and the implied goal of any fascist nation is to rule the world, and have every human submit to the government.
3."Nothing against the state". Any type of questioning the government is not to be tolerated. If you do not see things our way, you are wrong. If you do not agree with the government, you cannot be allowed to live and taint the minds of the rest of the good citizens.
The use of militarism was implied only as a means to accomplish one of the three above principles, mainly to keep the people and rest of the world in line. Fascist countries are known for their harmony and lack of internal strife. There are no conflicting parties or elections in fascist countries.

Nazi Germany was extreme Fascism, better examples of fascist countries were Mussolini's Italy, Iraq, Iran, and many middle eastern countries.
