iwjdfeiwjfiewjgio4jNapoleon because he wasn’t selfish and thought about the future of “Animal Farm.” First, the dominated farm animals viewed Napoleon and Snowball differently at different times throughout the book. The way the animals reacted to each leader brought upon new problems of the farm. The animals respected Snowball, and believed that his teachings were all true and had a good cause. Although Snowball and Napoleon had superior qualities leadership, it was clearly Snowball who had the better qualities for running a farm. Under Snowballs’ rule, the animals were generally content with what was going on and were all for it if it was to better the farm. It was obvious that Napoleon had the better half of getting his own way on the farm. However, the animals had some problems with Napoleon but they didn’t know haw to express their feelings and show him that they didn’t like the way he ran things. It was the animals’ ignorance that helped keep Napoleon in rule for as long as it was. The responses were so different between the animals that it must have been a drastic change between Snowball and Napoleon. The response was different because Snowball had such a bond between him and the animals. Napoleon, being the big pig that he is, was not to be messes with on the farm and because of that the animals were trying to get around the problems themselves and not go straight to the problem...Napoleon. With Snowball in rule, the animals were more at ease going to him and talking about what bothers them. In conclusion, Snowball was a better leader for the farm than Napoleon, the animals reacted more harshly to Napoleon than to Snowball, and this reaction was obviously because of Napoleon’s selfish use of totalitarianism.

    He fights the humans in battle against the humans and commands them successfully. This quality makes him most suitable because he is fighting for the animals to overpower the humans. His inventiveness allows for the society of animals to prosper over the humans; the inventions allow them to build their society up. He reads and learns to make Animal Farm better, while trying to educate the other animals too. Overall, Snowball is more involved with the animals and doesn’t want to have more power than them. Napoleon on the other hand, is more of a dictator and is more concerned for himself. For example, when he overlooks the commandments for himself. He takes Snowball’s ideas and claims they are his. Also, Napoleon acts much more immature than Snowball. For instance, “then suddenly he lifted his leg, urinated over the plans, and walked out without uttering a word.” He doesn’t handle disputes maturely and his actions show this. Also, he blames Snowball for the destruction of the windmill, even though it was the storm. Snowball is the obvious candidate to govern Animal Farm and is best for protecting all the animals that reside there. Napoleon seems to be covering the farm from animalism to communism. All of the animals of Animal Farm should rally together and say, “Snowball for everyone, Napoleon for…

    Snowball was a much better leader than Napoleon because he enforced education whereas Napoleon thought it was unnecessary. Education is the key to nearly everything and if the animals could read and write they would be able to help out more on the farm and they would get a better understanding of what is going on. They could read books on how to run a farm and on the world as well and write things to other animals or people. The animals were learning and some could start writing and reading words. Other animals like Boxer could only say 5 letters of the alphabet which night not seem like much but…

    He is a fairly easy character to take advantage of because he no longer lives on the farm and therefore everything can be blamed on him. Napoleon has everyone convinced that Snowball is a criminal and Snowball can’t defend himself. Every time something goes wrong on the farm, like the windmill being destroyed or windows being broken, Snowball is always indicted. Anyone who disagrees with or questions Napoleon’s authority is accused to be affiliated with Snowball. Napoleon exploits the animals’ ignorance and bad memories to strengthen his arguments.…

    Snowball was also one of the leaders of the pigs, however was betrayed by Napoleon later. He was a lot more diligent than Napoleon but he lacked more depth in character and personality. Snowball, who represents Leon Trotsky, is a gradual politician and targets to advance Animal Farm with a windmill and other technological improvements, but Napoleon expels him before he can do so. In his absence, Snowball comes to characterize a conceptual idea of evil. The animals blame hardships on him, including the windmill’s destruction, and amuse the idea that he is waiting on one of the close farms, scheming revenge. Napoleon uses the animals’ fear of Snowball to create new excitement and changes…

    After Snowball is chased off by Napoleon's vicious dogs and turned into a scapegoat, it’s easy to over-correct Napoleon’s propaganda and imagine Snowball a great and noble pig. In the early chapters, though, it is clear that Snowball has as many faults as he does strengths. Though Snowball plays an important role in the Rebellion and helps set up the Seven Commandments, he is also the one to reduce the commandments to the simplistic line “four legs good, two legs bad” (3.9). It is the very simplicity of the line that later allows the sheep to bleat it over Snowball's speeches. When the other animals protest the pigs taking all the milk for their mash, Snowball is united with Napoleon in claiming that the milk is necessary for their brainwork. In other words, though Snowball isn’t around when the pigs turn Animal Farm into a dictatorship, he goes along with the first steps before he gets elbowed out.…

    Snowball is a kind character, while Napoleon is more sly. While fighting for the option to either build or not build the windmill, Snowball proposes a three day workweek (37), which shows that he wanted the other animals to have more free time so they could enjoy themselves. He also wants to help all the other animals become literate to some degree, which tells readers that he cares about everyone. On the other hand, Napoleon let his true self through when he started to change the commandments and change the other animal’s depictions of Snowball. After Snowball is chased out of the farm by Napoleon’s dogs, A rumor is begun that the windmill was actually Napoleon’s plan (42), and Squealer, Napoleon’s direct connection to the animals, further sets in the rumor by lying to the animals and ‘confirming’ it. Squealer also convinces all the other animals that Snowball has not fought in the Battle (57-58), and that sets Napoleon on an even higher pedestal., Boxer, the hardest worker on the farm, is sent off to a glue factory to be killed (83-84), which shows that Napoleon is a bit cold hearted. Snowball is the stronger leader because he has many traits that Napoleon does, but he does not lie or cheat the other animals. Snowball always has the best intentions for the farm in mind, while Napoleon can be quite selfish. Snowball does disappear mid-way…

    Napoleon is the Stalin in the novel. He tricks everyone and tries to make himself credible. For example, Squealer always supports Napoleon saying, “Napoleon is always right,” all the time even though Squealer cannot really tell what is going on. He has the audacity to lie about Snowball. It states in the novel that he tells the farm animals that Snowball ruin the windmill when really the storm destroys it. He turns all the animals against Snowball and made Jessie’s dogs chase Snowball away. In the novel, he does not want the animals to take a break from the windmill because he is in contradiction of them learning. If they have knowledge, they can overthrow Napoleon and realize all the bad things he does. Through his speeches, Napoleon is straight forward about what his point his. That is a pro factor of him because he likes to stick to the point. The techniques he uses in the struggle for power is getting rid of Snowball and making him look good to the animals.

    At the beginning of Chapter 7, Napoleon manipulates history by telling the animals, “Snowball was in league with Jones from the very start! He was Jones’s secret agent all the time.” (66) But the truth is Snowball wants to make Animal Farm a better place with his different reforms such as building the windmill and creating the many committees. Snowball is never in an alliance with Jones or any other human. Napoleon also claims he created the blueprints for the windmill when in actuality, Snowball creates the blueprints. Unfortunately, the minds of the animals are weak and are easily influenced by Napoleon and his lies and history is rewritten in their heads. They believe that Snowball is no longer someone helping them but the enemy, signifying that Napoleon is holding power over them.…

    Napoleon started out with “all animals are equal” but eventually his ruling turned into a dictatorship. Like many dictator, Napoleon shut himself out and stayed in the farmhouse with the dogs standing guard. At the end, Napoleon then made himself emperor and was no different then how humans were. Napoleon evolved different because Snowball devoted himself to bettering the animals and Napoleon only cared about power. Snowball idea of building the windmill was so that animals could have reduced work and more rest. Napoleon convinced the animals that Snowball plotted with Mr. Jones and then gets a bad reputation from it. “… Snowball stood up and, though occasionally interrupted by bleating by the sheep, set forth his reasons for advocating the building of the windmill. Then Napoleon stood up to reply. He said very quietly that the windmill was nonsense and the he advised nobody to vote for it…” This quote shows “power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely” because even though the idea of the windmill would benefit everyone on the farm, Napoleon didn't care and only wanted power.…
