Answer:

Marat was a French journalist who suffered from a deteriorating skin disease that obliged him to spend most of his time inside a bathtub. However, this did not stop him from being one of the most respected voices among the radical groups of the revolution.

He made such claims because he was, along with Robespierre, the most noteworthy radical figure of the Revolution. Marat actively called for the murder of the King and the royal family, and the murder of all of the nobles and political prisoners who supported the king and the Ancient Regime.

In the end, he was successful because the royal family was beheaded, as well as many political prisoners. However, he was himself killed by a loyalist peasant, who stabbed him to death while he was on his bathtub.

What is the primary difference between the principles of capitalism and socialism

SashulF [63]

Capitalism: is an economic system in which the factors of production are privately owned and money is invested in business ventures to make a profit.
(Basically Capitalism referred to people who believed that the government should not interfere with businesses)

Socialism: the factors of production are owned by the public and operate for the welfare of all.

The main difference between the two was that in capitalism, business owners wanted to run everything themselves. They didn't want help from the government at all. Socialism was when the people wanted "some government" involved within the businesses. In summary, the main difference is the amount of government that was allowed to take over in a business.
