    Half the country supported fascism, either directly or through inaction, what do you do…? Demilitarization would be of no help here, so what are the options? It is a cultural process that needs to cause a collective reflection to move on. What “punishment” would have worked in your opinion?

      Something like germany and austria. Lose any territories with significant amount of other nationalities like the east of germany going to Poland.

      They could have lost south Tyrol and they should have lost Trieste.

        This would have not have changed anything in terms of not being reconciled with and have elaborated the fascist past. You would have had exactly the same situation today, just with different borders.
