Through the years - Silvio Berlusconi (1936-2023)

Silvio Berlusconi was an Italian businessman turned politician. He made his wealth from the holding company Fininvest which he founded and by buying television channels such as Canale 5 and Rete 4. Through Fininvest he was also the owner of AC Milan. He first entered politics in 1993 when he founded Forza Italia. The next year he became Prime Minister but his centre-right coalition fell apart eight months later. In the election of 1996 he suffered heavy losses but by 2001 his party had recovered and the coalition got a majority again. This time the coalition proved more stable and Berlusconi would serve as Prime Minister until 2006 when the coalition failed to get a majority. After two years in the opposition Berlusconi once again became Prime Minister from 2008 until 2011. Although he would not serve the office anymore after this, Berlusconi remained an influential figure in Italian politics. In total he served as Prime Minister for nine years, longer than any politician since the Second World War.
