BS on your latter claim, fasces are everywhere in the US https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fasces#Fasces_in_the_United_St... as a homage to the Roman Republic on which ours was explicitly modeled (the S in SPQR stands for Senate), and pretty much were already there before Mussolini adopted them (and being an Italian in Italy, how could he not?).
How many other countries have two giant gold fasces prominently displayed in their main debating chamber?
