[Ans] Who is credited with coining the political term “fascism”?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Who is credited with coining the political term “fascism”?"



Italian dictator Benito Mussolini is widely credited with coining and popularizing the term “fascism.” The word comes from the Italian fascismo, derived from the Latin fasces—a bundle of rods tied around an axe blade that symbolized authority and unity in ancient Rome. Mussolini adopted the symbol and the term in the early 1920s to describe his authoritarian nationalist movement after he seized power in Italy in 1922. Fascism later became the label for similar ultranationalist, dictatorial regimes in Europe during the interwar period.

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Snoopy’s yellow bird friend is named after what music festival?"



...The little yellow bird first showed up as a secretary for Snoopy in the comic strip in 1967, but wasn’t given a name until 1970.

He continues to pine for her for the rest of the series, despite her never actually appearing in the comic. (The character eventually appeared in the 2015 CGI “Peanuts” feature film.)

...Linus’ ever-present security blanket showed up in 1954 and immediately readers couldn’t bear to part with it. Psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott asked for permission to use it as an example when he first defined “transitional objects” (items that soothe a child’s anxiety). Schulz was even approached by the Oxford English Dictionary to see if he had created the term “security blanket” in this meaning, but he demurred.
