□ one political party or dictator ruled the state.
□ multiple political parties governed the state.
□ citizens were required to be obedient to the state.
□ the government indoctrinated young people.
□ a belief in isolationism dominated politics.
□ the government censored the press.

Explanation:

Fascism in Italy (under Mussolini) was characterized by authoritarian rule. A single party (Fascist Party) or dictator (Mussolini) held power, so "One political party or dictator ruled the state" is correct. "Multiple political parties governed" is incorrect as fascism is single - party. Citizens were forced to obey the state's demands, so "Citizens were required to be obedient to the state" is correct. The government indoctrinated youth (e.g., through youth organizations) to promote fascist ideology, so "The government indoctrinated young people" is correct. Isolationism was not a key feature (fascism sought expansion), so "A belief in isolationism dominated politics" is incorrect. The government censored the press to control information and promote fascist views, so "The government censored the press" is correct.

Answer:

A. One political party or dictator ruled the state.
C. Citizens were required to be obedient to the state.
D. The government indoctrinated young people.
F. The government censored the press.
