My great grandfather worked in the coal mines as a child. At the time, he was sinewy and though he was small, he was very strong. There was very little repose. He said the workers had very little time to rest, and they were worked to the bone day in and day out. He showed me the scars he still possessed from those days, and with very little rest in that time, he could never really outgrew his lean figure. Would he have been brawny and strong like the men of today if he had rested from work? I could not imagine my great grandfather being anywhere near muscular even if he was young.

Hope this helped! With these kind of assignments you wanna make sure you show you understand the definitions.

- It was supported by Lenin and other Russian revolutionaries

Explanation:

The communism is an ideology that is largely based around equality, self-sustaining, and horizontal hierarchy. Politically, the communism propagates that everyone should be equal in the society, thus there should be only one class, and everyone should have the same opportunities and things at disposal. Economically, the communism is propagating command economy, which is an economy totally owned and controlled by the government, and it has the purpose to make the country a self-sustaining one. During the 20th century there were numerous examples of countries with this system, and there are several in the present as well, but is seems that is not a system that works properly, and it has caused damage to every possible level.
