Word of choice post
The word I chose to research was communism. Looking at the Ngram viewer the word communism is very rarely used until around 1850 where is increases in popularity until around 1962. Communism starts to gain popularity mainly due to the age of enlightenment where the ideas and beliefs were starting to spread around the world. 1850 is also around the time where Marx and Engels were developing the ideology, which is why it starts to gain popularity in documents around that time. The word communism also peaks at around 1962-1965 where the Cold War is at his highest tension point.
