As enlightened by Old Major who is highly regarded on the Manor Farm, animals get a success in a unexpected rebellion on a middle summer evening. They expel their tormentors — human beings and change Manor Farm into Animal Farm. From then on, animals manage the farm by themselves. All the animals have began learning to read and write, but only clever ones such as Napoleon, Snowball and Benjamin are in a higher degree. Unconsciously, Napoleon and Snowball become the leaders of Animal Farm. They work together to reduce the principle of animalism to the Seven Commandments based on the equality of all the animals. Animals immerse themselves in the ecstasy of their success and happiness. All of them enjoy themselves having a peaceful life, which is surrounded with freedom and democracy. Unfortunately, peaceful life on the farm is short-lived.
