For a continuous distribution with a known mean and a variance, the maximum entropy principle yields the normal distribution.
For the discrete finite distribution with unknown mean and variance, we obtain the uniform distribution. See https://youtu.be/4unT_mQD0Ng
We the multivariate normal distribution in the same manner. See https://youtu.be/7qsB8ElrCC4
