I am a citizen of two countries: a republic and a monarchy. Both are advanced European liberal democracies.
One has a strong far right, refuse to acknowledge its own regional languages because of the threat they pose to the national unity and has a very strong head of state that can decide a lot of things alone, without being responsible before the Parliament.
The other has almost no far right, a very numerous immigrated population, recognizes three national languages but officially communicates in two other languages spoken by its two biggest immigrated communities, has a weak head of state and a strong Parliament.
I feel like you are extremely close to an answer, but just need to embrace it. So, upvote, but I really need to learn more about how you’re feel and why.
We all know the empire is evil. I’m just trying to learn more about how we got here.

For the, the main source of proto-fascism is nationalism. The form of governement is secondary.
