Friedrich Engels

Friedrich Engels was born on November 28, 1820 in Barmen, Rhire Province, Prussia (now Germany), and died August 5, 1895 in London, England. He is a German socialistic philosopher who is the closest associate of Karl Marx in the creation of modern Communism. In 1842, he became a communist and helped Karl in vocalizing their revolutionary ideas. In 1845, he rejoined Marx in Brussels and Engels supported Marx’s newly put together economic or materialistic interpretation of history, which concluded in a communist triumph. Together both Marx and Engel persuaded a Second Communist Congress in London to embrace their views. Then, they were authorized to create a statement of Communist principles and policies, which were revealed in 1848 as the “Manifest du Kommunistischen Partei” (the “Communist Manifesto”). It was seen that Friedrich Engel was the salesman of Marxism while, Karl Marx himself was the genius theoretician.
