Communism is an economic system where property and resources are shared equally. The symbol of communism is the hammer and sickle, representing workers and farmers. Key aspects of communism include shared work and equal pay. Though first proposed in Greece, it grew in popularity in response to economic inequality in the 19th century. Major communist states include the former USSR and China. Potential advantages include equal access and fulfilling basic needs, though disadvantages are a lack of incentive and reward for hard work.

COMMUNISM TEMOGO MABETHA
SYMBOL OF COMMUNISM This is the symbol used to represent communism: The hammer and the stickle. The hammer is for the workers while the stickle is for the farm labourers, or fairly known as peasants. This was used to show union between the two classes as communism was pro equality.
WHAT IS COMMUNISM? Communism is a government where people shared work evenly fairly and were paid equally. The word communism is derived from the Latin word communis, which means common or belonging to all. By other authors, communism can be described as an economic system where everything is shared equally amongst every citizen.
HISTORY OF COMMUNISM The investors of a communist system believed that there was an unequal balance within the people in the economy. The richer got rich, while the poorer remained poor. To balance the ratio, they decided to make everything equal. It was first proposed in Greece as a typical brainstorm idea.
HISTORY OF COMMUNISM USSR: Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The USSR was a communist party formed in December 1922 Communism opened a friendship between the U.S. and Russia, which was motivated by struggle of capitalism.
HISTORY OF COMMUNISM Karl Marx. He believed communism was the solution to capitalisms problems. He believed the workers would get fed up of capitalism and overthrow the government, thus leading to the start of capitalism.
ADVANTAGES OF COMMUNISM Everyone would be able to achieve their goals. There would be no inequality or division. Everyone would have the same access to essential services. Basic needs for all citizens would be accomplished.
DISADVANTAGES OF COMMUNISM No reward for hard workers. The economy would be static. No one would be encouraged to work.
