Marx thought that the ideal society would have no class hierarchies (i.e., there would not be a division between those who owned businesses, and those who sold their labor to the business owners), and no state. He didn't spend a lot of time describing exactly what this meant, because Marx did not believe in Utopian thinking. He thought history was a process, and we should work towards freedom from oppression in the society we live in, not attempt to imagine wholesale what a perfect society would be like from scratch.
