After the effects of The Industrial Revolution german philosopher Karl Marx used his knowledge and ideas to change what he thought was a negative effect on the world. Karl Marx invented communism. In Marx's idea of communism he believed that everyone should share wealth unlike today's communist governments which have become dictatorships. Marx and a man named Friedrich Engels published "The Communist Manifesto" which explained Marx's views of what he thought the worl should be like.
Marx emphasized on the excessive need for new factories and the pollution it brought. He stated "capitalism contained it's own seeds of destruction". Marx was known as a historian of economic thought, he posted exactly 10,000 on economics. After being financially supported by Engels for much of his adult life Marx died in 1883. After the war many governments became communist changing the ideas of Marx and making them their own. These countries became strict dictorial lands.
