The communist theory of government was developed by who?

The communist theory of government was primarily developed by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in the mid-19th century. Their ideas were articulated in key works such as "The Communist Manifesto" (1848) and "Das Kapital" (1867). Marx and Engels argued for the establishment of a classless society through the abolition of private property and the means of production being owned collectively. Their theories laid the foundation for various communist movements and ideologies that followed.
