You are mistaken. Jenny von Westphalen's family was a low level noble, but in no way royal. The "von" is a hint they were noble, but not royal. She had distant relatives that were higher English and Scottish nobles, but no known royal relatives. Her family were always beneath sovereign families, and thus were nobles not royals.
I hope this helps you.
The UK and France were pulling Europe towards freedom, while the Russians were pulling towards absolute monarchy. There was a long standing rivalry there. Meanwhile, Germany was not even a fully formed country, so no one took it seriously. Russia was eager to quietly support anyone who would destabilize the more democratic western powers.
And Marx gave Russia nothing to fear. He believed only capitalism as it existed in the west could produce communism. The traditional feudalism of Russia would first have to become a modern capitalist economy, and then could become communist. Marx estimated it would take "two hundred years" for that to happen.
Communism has always had to confront the problem that they were not born from capitalist systems. Russia was very backwards with almost no proletarians(industrial workers). China was even worse. The solution Stalin had was to try to force the peasants to become proletarians after the revolution. Millions died as he forced them into the cities. Mao's solution was even more basic, where he tried to force the people to become new peasants, and then later proletarians. Pol Pot tried to start over from "year one", and force people even further back.
Jenny von Westphalen Marx has always been taught to be the wife of Karl Marx. Some history can be debated, but who married who is pretty solid. She was of a minor noble family, but distantly related to some major noble families in Scotland and England. Again legitimate family relations are pretty solid history unlikely to change much.
You started out by claiming that Marx married into a royal family, and now do not even know the name of his wife? It sounds like you have just heard a few random things about Marx.
This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

In your version of history, who married Karl Marx?
Just admit you are wrong. I actually know quite a bit about Russian, German, British, and communist history. I am weak on Jewish history, which is odd given my ancestry. Next time try to catch me on Jewish history, you got a good shot.
