 Old Major– Pig
BACK
Old Major is an old pig (twelve
years old) that has won many
awards with Mr. Jones. He had
over 400 piglets which are some
of the main characters in the
story.
One evening, he called all the
animals to the main barn for a
meeting. He says that a
rebellion is coming soon. He
inspires the animals to rebel by
singing them a song called
“Beasts of England”, which
spreads around the globe
quickly.
After Chapter One, he dies
peacefully in bed.
In the beginning of the animated
movie, he dies after screaming
to the top of his lungs at the
meeting.
Karl Marx (Old Major)
Karl Marx was a
German Jew that
was nicknamed
“The Father of
Communism.”
He wrote two documents that
would change communism
forever. They were Communist
Manifesto and Das Kapital.
In Animal Farm, you can see
some of his communist ideas in
the book.
Example:
Marx’s documents eventually
turned into a communist system.
This system made all people
equal and would be on there
own means of production
In Animal Farm, Old Major
states in his speech that “All
Animals are equal.” Orwell
made fun of Marx’s way of
communism by showing how
equality fails.

 Boxer & Clover –
BACK Horses
Boxer and Clover are both
horses that work under the
command of Napoleon and
Snowball.
Boxer is devoted to his
work. To motivate himself
and the other animals, he
would repeat, “I will work
harder.” Boxer is eventually
injured in battle and is
forced to stop working.
Napoleon sells Boxer to a
glue company for money.
Clover is a silent character
who also works under
Napoleon and Snowball.
She questions Napoleon’s
rules and decisions and is
not mentioned very much
after that.
Working Class during
the Russian Revolution
(Boxer & Clover)
The working class in the
Russian Revolution are just
like the animals in Animal
Farm who are not dogs or
pigs.
They questioned the
authority and the rules, but
were forced to work for
their dictator. They were
working for the government
and not getting anything
back from them.
This seemed unfair, but
continued to work because
they did not know about
this.
BACK Squealer – pig
Squealer is a pig who is a
good thinker and taught
most of the animals.
He is mainly known for
given speeches to the
animals or saying special
announcements.
He is also Napoleon's right
hand man.
Pravda – Communist
Party Newspaper
(Squealer)
This Newspaper spread
Russian word all over the
Soviet Union.
It told about Communist
Party propaganda and
deceptive information to
the people.

to drive out Snowball and
uses them to kill rebellious

The KGB
(The Dogs)
The KGB was the Soviet
Secret Police. They were
under the control of Stalin
and did what he told them
to do.
The KGB did everything to
spying to executing to
running concentration
camps. They gave no mercy
and were absolutely brutal.
BACK Benjamin— Donkey
Benjamin is and old donkey
that has been around the farm
for years.
Benjamin does not think
anything has changed after the
rebellion. He thinks life will
remain unpleasant, no matter
who is in charge.
He is the only one who
notices the unfair changes and
rules the pigs make.
Older Generation
(Benjamin)
The Older Generation never
supported the rebellion in
Russia. They would criticize
any new rebellion that would
occur.
The Old Generation
remembered how good life
was before the revolution.
