Benito Mussolini holds a document (plans for rebuilding the Roman empire) while laying bricks (Tyrol, African possessions, Sicily, and Italy). Other bricks (formerly the Roman empire) can be seen scattered around (Spain, France, England, Belgium, South Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary, Jugoslavia, Albania, Greece, Asia, and Egypt), each with a man sitting on them.
