Comintern (Communist International)

The Comintern, officially called the Communist International, was an organization founded in 1919 to promote global communist revolution. It aimed to coordinate communist parties worldwide, encouraging them to overthrow capitalist systems and establish socialist governments inspired by Soviet Russia's ideology. The Comintern sought international solidarity among workers and revolutionaries, providing guidance, support, and strategy. It played a key role in spreading communism during the early 20th century but was disbanded in 1943 during World War II, as political priorities shifted. Overall, it was a global effort to unify communist movements under a common cause.
