Karl Heinrich Marx was a Prussian communist philosopher, economist, sociologist, journalist, intellectual and militant, and in his vast and influential work covers different fields of thought in philosophy, history, political science, sociology and economy; although he did not limit his work only to research, since he also ventured into the practice of journalism and politics, always proposing in his thought a union between theory and practice. Together with Friedrich Engels, he is the father of scientific socialism, modern communism, Marxism and historical materialism. His best known writings are the Manifesto of the Communist Party (co-authored with Engels), The Capital and The Eighteenth Brumaire by Luis Bonaparte.

The homestead act of 1862 encouraged the people to settle in the great plains. the homesteaders were allowed to claim for free 160 acres of land as long as they lived and worked on it for five years. this was a very attractive proposition to those who could not afford  to own lands before. the invention of the steel plow blade and the mechanical reaper made it possible for the farmers to plant and harvest large plots of wheat swiftly. the emergence of railroad lines to the west played an important part. they enabled the farmers to sell their wheat crop to other parts of the country. the many new inventions and technologies made life easier for the people so they now viewed the great plains not as a wasteland but as an immense area where they could live and farm.
