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 (1) 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 (2) 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 (3).
When Snowball announced the idea for constructing a windmill, Napoleon opposed it.
