He ruled with little input from others and conquered neighboring countries, while generally preserving the revolution’s changes, such as freedom of speech and religion.

This is exactly what the children represent in the spirit's legs. Children with deprivation and poverty while others have everything, and still want more.
This story tells the life of a selfish and sullen man who changes his way of being during a cold Christmas due to the visit of three ghosts, and it is precisely about symbolizing this problem in society, and trying to change it.
