Animal Farm

One night, the oldest pig on Manor farm, named the Old Major, called all the
animals in the farm for a meeting. He described his dream about the world where
all animals would live free from the tyranny of the human masters. The Old Major
died soon after the meeting, but inspired by his philosophy of animalism, two
younger pigs, Snowball and Napoleon assumed command.
Napoleon and Snowball led the animals in Manor farm to rebel and drive Mr.
Jones from the farm. Then, the animals changed Manor farm’s name to Animal
farm. The seven rules of animalism were written on the wall of the barn. Snowball
acted as the leader, attempting to read and write. Then, the pigs soon elevated
themselves to the position of leadership. Meanwhile, Napoleon managed to take
the pups from the farm dogs and trained them privately.
One day, Mr Jones came with his friends, trying to retake the farm. However,
the animals defeated him and could defend the farm. As the smartest animals,
Napoleon and Snowball struggled for leadership. When Snowball announced the
idea for constructing a windmill, Napoleon opposed it. Napoleon had his dogs
chase Snowball away. Later, in Snowball’s absence, Napoleon declared himself
leader and made many changes. He eliminated all meetings and instead a
committee of pigs ran the farm.
A pig named Squealer was assigned by Napoleon as accomplice. He
announced that Snowball stole Napoleon’s idea of making a windmill. All animals
except the pigs had to work harder to make the windmill and were promised to
have easier lives with the windmill. In fact, the animals received less and less food,
while the pigs grew fatter. Unfortunately, months after making the windmill, a
violent storm hit. Napoleon convinced the animals that Snowball destroyed it. He
started to make Snowball a scapegoat. When he purged the farm by killing
animals, he also accused Snowball of being the culprit. Napoleon has surely
abused his powers, he made life even harder for animals. The pigs imposed more
control over the farm while they reserved privilege for themselves. The rules of
animalism in the farm began to change and evolved. The pigs started to adopt the
lifestyle of humans while the other animals, though cold, starving, and
overworked, remained convinced through psychological conditioning that they
were still better off than they were ruled by Mr. Jones.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Frederick, one of the neighboring farmers, swindled
Napoleon and attacked the farm, using equal power to blow up the restored
windmill. Although the animals could win the battle, they did so at great cost,
including Boxer, the horse, who was wounded. While being ill, Boxer continued
working harder and harder, until he collapsed while working on the windmill.
Napoleon directly sent for a van to take Boxer to the vet, explaining that a better
car could be given there. Boxer died, amongst speculation from the pigs that it was
a cover-up from Squealer.
Years passed and the pigs learned to walk upright, carried whips, and wore
clothes just like humans. The seven rules of animalism were reduced to a single
phrase: All animals are blasting but some animals are more equal than others. One
night, Napoleon held a dinner party for the pigs and the humans of the area, who
congratulated Napoleon on having the hardestworking animals in the country on
the least feed. Then, Napoleon announced an alliance with humans and reverted
the name of the farm to ‘Manor Farm.’ The other animals overheard those
conversations. They noticed that the faces of the pigs had begun changing. The
animals realized that the faces of pigs looked like the faces of humans and no one
could tell the difference between them.
