    Animal Farm is an allegory as it has parallels to the Soviet Union and the possibility of totalitarianism. The phrase in the book "All animals are equal but some are more equal than others" is a good satire on the facade of equality that communism in Russia at the time had. The pigs were the communist idealist, some of them being representatative of ones present in Soviet Russia, and they had a plan to overthrow the farmer, Mr. Jones, who is like the old tzars of Russia. The farm goes from a monarchy, to communist government, to a totalitarian government, resulting in Napoleon, the head pig, having complete control over everything in the farm. In the end, the communist idealist pigs turn into just what they had overthrown, and the rest of the animals could no longer tell them apart from the humans.…
