Characters of Animal Farm

Introduction

In this I’ll be writing about three characters that stood out to me, Napoleon, Benjamin, and Boxer. They all had great abilities but some used them for their own problems. Except Boxer, he used his great strength for the whole farm.

Napoleon

        Napoleon was a pig who took over the farm and ran everything. He is a pig that made his way as the new leader of Animal Farm. He was basically a hypocrite in my opinion because he told everyone that being around or acting like a human is a disgrace. Eventually he did what he told everyone else not to do. Napoleon forced all the animals to work for their food and didn’t give any if they didn’t work on Sundays. He would eventually run the whole farm as if he were a communists.

Benjamin

Benjamin was a donkey who never did his assigned work like every other animal. His thoughts on everything from the meetings were that it wouldn’t change anything and life will continue on being terrible. He was smart and could read but was too selfish to tell anyone what was happening. He felt very bad about what happened to his friend, Boxer, who was hauled away in a van headed to the glue factory. Benjamin mainly was a neutral character because he wouldn’t pick a side but either way he would have to do work.

Boxer

        Boxer was a very strong horse, who did all of the heavy work during the windmill. He was a big strong horse; he had two mottos for work, “I will work harder” and “Napoleon is always right. During the Battle of Cowshed, Boxer was the most courageous earning two medals saying, “Animal Hero, First Class.” He would play a key role in the build of the windmill. He was the one to push the heavy stone blocks up the hill and knocked them off to break them. He was injured and as I had explained in Benjamin’s description, he was hauled in a van to a glue factory.

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, The farm had became worse than what it was with Mr. Jones. Napoleon controlled everyone and everything, and stopped anyone who got in the way. He changed the commandments to his likings and changed into something he told all the other animals not to become. That is a human.
