Franco, and fascism in general somehow managed to really impress the young Juan Carlos.Most likely the ones that were already monarchies. Although, that runs the risk of the monarchy itself becoming a vehicle for overthrowing the fascist state (as in Spain).
I don't think most fascist states would survive that long. Even if we go with Axis victory, Germany runs Europe, the Nazi government was so fraught with infighting (which was the point - divide and conquer) that it would likely collapse within a few years of Hitler's death because everyone's trying to race to the top at once. I don't know the internal politics of other fascist states but I presume it would be similar.
Closest I can picture to your challenge is if there's no Iraq War, Saddam Hussein dies, and one of his kids takes the lead. Depending on your definition of fascism this is already the case for the Syrian and North Korean regimes.
Spanish fascist state ran until the 70s, and that only ended because Francos heir wanted to dismantle the system.
it's also important to remember that pretty much the only reason Francoist Spain lasted as long as it did was because it was convenient for the West to leave it alone for the sake of keeping it from becoming communist. take away the Cold War and Franco probably would have been deposed right quick.But even in that case, the regime basically only lasted for the life of a single leader. I wouldn't necessarily say that points to a system with a high degree of resilience.
Say the axis wins or World War 2 doesn't happen or whatever.
Would hereditary succession be likely in the various fascist states
Which countries would be most likely to have hereditary succession
Could one of his sons become the next Duce?But at this point he'd be old and tired and probably satisfied enough not to want to rock the boat.
The question was about the latter.Unless, of course, the question was not about hereditary succession in the monarchy, but about hereditary succession in the new figure of the Leader.

You might be looking for Subhas Chandra Bose and the RSS for examples of pro-Fascist/Indian Fascist/Fascistic figures and movements.India (there was an Indian nationalist that was pro-Fascist). Complicated at best - I expect Republic of India will be established.
Subhas Chandra Bose was basically a militant nationalist who considered himself a socialist. He allied with the fascists as the only pragmatic policy at that time. He had never supported the racist policies of the Nazis and viewed it with distaste. He had admiration for the Soviet Union. He also held the view that some form of authoritarianism was required to change the feudal and conservative Indian society to a socialist republic.You might be looking for Subhas Chandra Bose and the RSS for examples of pro-Fascist/Indian Fascist/Fascistic figures and movements.
Do we have any OTL examples of succession of a fascist state? North Korea, I guess?
Bose seemed to have been a lot closer to National Bolshevism than either National Socialism or Soviet-style Socialism/Communism, especially with his apparent desire to combine both ideologies to create the foundation for a new India.Subhas Chandra Bose was basically a militant nationalist who considered himself a socialist.

The RSS as a militant nationalist organisation had watched in their initial period the rise of militant nationalism in Italy and Germany with admiration. The evening meetings of RSS branches held every day across the length and breadth of the country start with the prayer of salutation to the Motherland represented by the saffron flag.
