Similarities And Differences Between Animal Farm And The Holocaust

"All oppression creates a state of war" -Simone de Beauvar, French Philosopher. Animal Farm by George Orwell is an allegory for the Russian Revolution. Each animal was a key character in the Revolution such as Napoleon being Joseph Stalin, Mr. Jones being Tsar Nicholas and Boxer, being an ignorant. Mr.Jones was run off the farm because the animals were tired of the drunken man mistreating them. What the animals didn't know was that they went from one dictator to a whole group of them. The pigs. Ignorance contributes to political and social oppression and is proved by the inability to comprehend what the pigs are doing to the other animals. The animals cannot read or write as well, are perplexed easily, couldn't see the blemishes in the pig's leadership, or how the pigs changed things and didn't see or completely ignored how the pigs had acted.

Two individuals may seem similar in appearance and outward self but it’s the inner character and diverse qualities of a person that distinguishes between two people.

George Orwell’s Animal Farm and Suzanne Collin’s The Hunger Games have more similarities than one might think. Both pieces have a horribly corrupt government with a single leader getting the best of the best, whether the civilians know it or not. Dystopian fiction tends to follow a pattern. Among the typical motifs are crisis, solution, charismatic leader, and the making of an enemy. Dystopian fiction also always has a visionary, or one to oppose the oppression. While, Old Major and Katniss Everdeen aren’t easily compared, the similarities in their goals really do bring up a good point.

Both had very opposite roles in the books they took part in, but both had a similar goal in mind: to make a better community.
