From the end of the eighteenth century to the beginning of the nineteenth century, important historical events such as the industrial revolution occurred. During this period Europe was transforming into an economy focused primarily on the industrial sector. From this emerged two socioeconomic classes, the rich bourgeoisie and the poor proletariat. Furthermore, tension between the two groups was created because the source of wealth of the bourgeoisie came from the exploitation of the proletariat. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels' book The Communist Manifesto responded to the situation and created a vision of an equal communist society. The Communist Manifesto was defined by the abolition of bourgeois sovereign rule that followed a revolution against capitalism. This is because it allowed the emergence of the powerful bourgeois, “In a word, for exploitation, veiled by religious and political illusions, naked, shameless, direct and brutal exploitation”. As Marx explained, the bourgeois exploited the proletariats through the long hours of labor that workers had to endure to receive very low wages, which maximized bourgeois profits Furthermore, Marx stated that “The conditions of bourgeois society are too limited to comprehend the wealth created by them… it has also given birth to men who brandish. those weapons: modern workers. The elites have created a very exclusive market, so that the market can be positioned effectively; the bourgeoisie depended on the exploitation of others to stay wealthy. Marx perceived that this tactic, which allowed the bourgeoisie to overthrow its predecessors, could be used against the bourgeoisie in the long term. However, the way to abolish the bourgeoisie was for the proletarians to rebel against the factories in their areas and destroy the technology within the factories, this allowed the return of skilled workers.
