Being in power is a dangerous thing, and we can see this from the beginning of Animal Farm. Napoleon and Snowball seem relatively alike, although they both have differences between them. They both share some physical characteristics and strengths; however, their ideas regarding being a leader in the farm is very different. Their relationships with the other animals is disparate. One of the ideas that they both agreed on was animalism and seven commandments. In the novel of Animal Farm by George Orwell the author shows the reader, through the characters how not everyone is capable of being a leader.
