Communism

Created by Karl Marx in the 1800's, Communism was an idea that came as a resultant of the Industrial Revolution.  Marx aims to improve society with this type of complete socialism where the people own all means of production.  This idea says that private ownership will end and all good and services are to be shared equally.  Through Communism the government would dissolve and the country would be run by the people.  Traces of Communism can still be seen in places like China and Cuba, but these societies are not true to the original ideals.
