Mussolini didn't exactly give birth to fascism, its ideas were around before his rise to power in the March on Rome. Given the parameters, a Nazi-like government was bound to come to power in Germany with Hitler or not given the terms and conditions of the Treaty of Versailles. With Kai-Shek in power, China(under anyone really) would never allow Japan to become dominant in East Asia. The Balfour Declaration was also bound to happen, it was announced toward the end of the war in 1917.
