Summary
===  ﻿﻿ ﻿ Following the executions the animals discovered that the commandments have been changed and now read that "No animal shall kill any other animal without just cause". They blame this change on their faulty memories and do not realize someone is actually changing the commandments. As time goes on, conditions on the farm worsen but the animals are repeatedly told that they are better than the way it was under Mr. Jones. Napoleon has taken on the role of "leader" and begins negotiations with the neighboring farms to sell left over timber. Whoever the negotiations are not currently favoring the pigs teach the animals to hate. The wood ends up being sold to Mr. Frederick, however the pigs find out that the money he gave them is fake just after they finish the windmill. Mr. Frederick then attacks the animals with a group of men and destroys the newly built windmill. The animals retaliate and drive them away, but not without sustaining a few casualties and a serious injury to boxer. Later the pigs find a crate of whiskey, and the next day they find squealer with a paint brush and the rules now say "no animal shall drink alcohol to excess". The animals decide that they must have just forgotten the last two words. ===

Mr. Frederick: Adolf Hitler

 * ===Very untrustworthy and cruel. ===

Mr. Pilkington: Winston Churchill
===Napolean/ Stalin: The back and forth game Napolean plays between Mr. Federick and Mr. Pilkington over the sale of the left over timber is directly related to the Non-Agression Pact between Stalin and Hitler. This pact stated that war would be avoided between the two countries and they would resolve any disputes with peaceful negotiations. Stalin was fearing an impending attack from Hitler, so in order to protect Russia, he tried to form an alliance with England. However Britain's prime minister at the time, Neville Chamberlain, was wary of an alliance with Russia. Stalin then turned to Hitler to form an alliance in order to buy more time against attack. Once the pact was sign, Hitler went against his promise and attacked the Soviet Union. This action is directly related to Mr. Frederick giving Napolean false notes in exchange for the timber and attacking Animal Farm. ===
 * ===﻿Gentle, easygoing farmer. ===

===﻿Also, Napolean changing the rules is an example of how Stalin was changing the idea Karl Marx made to his beliefs. Stalin and his colleagues were using Marx's theories to justify for their violent actions. ===

(pg. 100-101) ===<span style="color: #13162f; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 150%;">Minimus's poem of Napolean is a prime example of how Stalin used propaganda in his favor to put himself on a higher pedestal, even though the media's words did not fit his actions. === <span style="color: #13162f; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 150%;">﻿ <span style="color: #00ff00; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 240%;">Quotes <span style="color: #00ff00; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 240%;"> ﻿ ﻿ 1. "our Leader, Comrade Napoleon." (pg. 99) Napoleons new title seems to be quite a double standard. By continuing to refer to Napoleon as the animals comrade is an understatement to the way he is treated. Not only is Napoleon called a comrade, but also a leader. However, Stalin became the same way in Russian society. Stalin talked often of equality but showed his true colors by deceiving his "comrades" intelligence. Ranking himself higher to a point of clear authority out of the eye of the public. <span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 25px; line-height: 0px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">

<span style="color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 25px; line-height: 0px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;">2. "The very next morning the attack came." (pg. 106)

At this time, the war between farms has arisen with the first move made by Frederick. On the other hand, World War II had been created through an attack of Nazi Germany, the Barbarossa Attack. Stalin makes a secret deal with Hitler and allows him to invaded Poland. In turn, Hitler stabs Stalin in the back and attacks Russia with the drive to take the progress in technology. Just as Frederick's stabbed Napoleon in the back by paying him with fake money and then attacking Animal Farm soon after.

3. "Serves you right." (pg. 107) While Napoleon reads this note from Pilkington, he regrets his secret bargain with Frederick. Nothing good came of trusting Frederick and, In comparison, after Germany's attack on Russia, Stalin realizes that Trusting hitler was wrong and that an enemy had become of Germany.

4. "Then we have won back what we had before." (pg. 110) Although Animal Farm had come out victorious to Frederick's attack, all of the progress the animals had made on the farm, in means of the windmill had been destroyed. As a result, Animal farm is back to where they started, building. Like wise, the citizens of Russia had felt that after all of their progress with creating new industries, they were back to step one.
