With what country was Karl Marx associated with and why?

Answer 1

Marx is mainly associated with Russia/The Soviet Union, because his theories on capitalism, socialism and communism were adopted by Vladimir Lenin and other revolutionaries to convince the people of Russia to overthrow the Czarist regime then in power in 1917. When the revolution succeeded a "communist" regime was imposed. This communist regime was not the type of communism predicted by Marx.

Secondarily, one may also say he is associated with Germany, since he was a German national and with England, since he did most of his writing in London, England.

Answer 2

Karl Marx was associated with Germany. He was born in Trier, Germany, and developed his theories on capitalism and communism while living in various European countries, including Germany, France, and England. His most famous work, "The Communist Manifesto," was co-written with Friedrich Engels and published in 1848.
