Old Major tells the animals of a better life where all animals are equal. This is the same with Karl Marx in 1848.
-
3 days later Old Major dies in his sleep whil Marx dies several years after his speeches.
-
The animals started getting severely mistreated and malnourished by Jones. Czar Nicholas II was also a poor leader at best to his people
-
Jones was driven out of his own farm by his mistreated animals. Czar Nicholas II was ousted and later assassinated in 1917
-
Jones attempts to retake Animal Farm, but is once again expelled. This marks the end of WWI
-
While Napoleon won some of the debates through canvassing some supporters, Snowball usually won through his exceptional speeches, much similar to the struggles between Trotsky and Stalin.
-
Napoleon chased away Snowball with his police dogs. Trotsky was deported around this time in the russian revolution.
-
The Windmill is now under progress under Napoleon's orders. This represents the industrial boom in Russia.
-
The hens were cut off from food when they protested that Napoleon is being too hard on the animals. A similar protest happened in Russia in 1932
-
Animals put on trial and killed by Napoleon after suspicion of them being unloyal. The Great Purge killed millions of people, many of them being in the military.
-
The pigs make a trade with Fredrickson to get money for wood, but Fredrickson scammed Napoleon. Hitler signed a non-aggresion pact that he broke soon after in this time period.
-
The trade was a scam! The animals had supplies taken from them, which followed by another invasion of Animal Farm. Hitler tricked Russia into not attacking them. He then invaded Russia on 1941, which is WWII.
-
A treaty with Pilkington was made to be allies and engage with trade. This caused the animals to notice that they were no better off with Jones. The treaty to divide Germany on August 2nd, 1945 matches with this event
