Old Major, an old boar, gathers the animals on Manor Farm to share his revolutionary vision, likening humans to parasites and teaching them the song "Beasts of England." After his death, pigs Snowball and Napoleon lead the animals in a successful revolt against Mr. Jones, renaming the farm "Animal Farm" and establishing the Seven Commandments of Animalism, with "All animals are equal" as the core principle. As the pigs assume leadership, they begin to privilege themselves, claiming special food for health reasons. Tension arises between Snowball and Napoleon, culminating in Snowball's expulsion by Napoleon's trained dogs. Napoleon consolidates power, replacing collective meetings with a committee of pigs and taking credit for Snowball's windmill idea. When the windmill collapses, Napoleon blames Snowball, using him as a scapegoat to justify purges against dissenters. The revolutionary anthem is replaced by one glorifying Napoleon, who increasingly resembles a human. Despite hardships, including an attack from neighboring farmers, the animals remain convinced of their progress. Boxer, the workhorse, collapses from overwork, and Napoleon deceitfully sends him away in a van belonging to a knacker. As time passes, the pigs adopt human traits, and the commandments are reduced to "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." In a final betrayal, Napoleon hosts a dinner with local farmers, and the animals real
