Identify three things the government controls in a communist country, and give one example of a current communist country.

Communism is a system of government where all the property is public and the government owns and controls the manufacturing and transportation industries. People share equally from the benefits of labor and they receive the things they need from the government.

Communism in Current Times

The advent of modern day communism started during the Russian Civil War (1918-1922) when the Bolsheviks pulled all productive property such as factories, mines and railroads under government control. Russia and the Bolsheviks are part of history; but, communism lives on in many countries.

Communist Structure and Activities

In Cuba the hospitals, medical professionals, medicines and medical supplies are all under the control of the Cuban government.

In North Korea the farmland, workers and food distribution are all under the control of the North Korean government.
