Also, with Mussolini a factor in the construction of the Iberian Commune, is it much more authoritarianly lead, or no?
Mussolini isn't terribly important there, but Iberia is increasingly totalitarian - I did mention that there were some power struggles, Mussolini survived them, but barely.

There is also the fact that he is an adament believer in the omniscience of politics in history and the complete unimportance of religion and philosophy
Not completely so, I do maintain the importance of culture, and philosophy and religion as its elements, not to mention economy; generally I think that it is all intertwined and hard to say what influences what.

Still, nice arguing with you, especially as we do hold very different viewpoints on religion's importance.
