First Badoglio government

The first Badoglio government led the Kingdom of Italy from 25 July 1943 until 24 April 1944, a total of 273 days, or 9 months and 3 days. It was established following the fall of the Mussolini government after the approval of Dino Grandi's order of the day by the Grand Council of Fascism, in turn leading to the fall of the Fascist regime in Italy. Due to the needs arising from World War II and the threat of an Italian Civil War, it was a transitional government that was a de facto transitional technical-military executive of King Victor Emmanuel III. It was the first government led by a military man since the second Pelloux government (1899–1900) and was composed of six generals, two prefects, six officials, and two state councilors.
