From Animal Farm ||~ What It Symbolized For Orwell. ||~ What It Symbolizes For Me (In Today's World) || || Karl Marx- He invented "marxism" or communism. He introduced the idea of a utopia and the idea of overthrowing the tsars. His thoughts led to the creation of the Russian Social Democratic Labor Party (RSDLP). || The president- He is the person who everyone goes to for advice or ideas. If someone was planning to declare war on another country, they would go to the President before even getting anything ready to go to war. || || Leon Trotsky- He was second in command to Lenin, just as Snowball was second in command to Napolean. He played a key role in the Red Army to the Russian Civil War. Trotsky wanted to spread communism to other parts of the world, whereas other wanted to just keep it in Russia. || Vice President- He has quite a bit of say in what goes on in the United States, but doesn't make all the decisions or finalize any decisions. He and the President confer and make sure that they agree and if they don't then they put it to a vote. The v.p. may not like the President, but he has to live with him. || || Stalin's Russia-They were a middle class in Russia who were not loyal to the Bolshevik party but did not contribute much to the Revolution. || People who do not vote- They are neutral and do not take sides, nor do they help out either side. ||
 * ~ Character/Item/Event
 * Old Major- He was the most respected animal on the farm. Old Major told everyone that humans were evil and that if they weren't around, life would be perfect. He believed that all work should be shared and all profits should be shared.
 * Snowball- He was the second in-line pig after Old Major died and usually did the planning, writing, or drawing. He and Napolean disagreed on a lot of things, but they would always settle it with a vote. Snowball was a very smart pig and introduced a lot of ideas for the Animal Farm.
 * Mollie- A very stupid and materialistic horse who came late to Old Major's speech with a lump of sugar on her tongue. He does not listen to Napolean or Snowball and hardly ever works, making it impossible for the utopia to take place correctly.

After the October Revolution, he was made commissar of foreign affairs and led Russia’s negotiations with Germany and Austria for the armistice and subsequent peace treaty that made possible Russia’s exit from World War I. ||
 * ~ Players: ||~ Description: ||
 * Russian Socialism || The Social-Democratic Party thought that Russia could achieve socialism but only after developing a middle class society with an urban proletariat (which was founded in 1898 in Minsk). the urban proletariat rejected the populist idea that the "Mir", could be the basis of a socialist society that could bypass the capitalist stage. ||
 * Tsar Nicholas II || The last Russian tsar ruled from 1894 until 1917 . Nicholas II, who assumed the throne with fear upon his father Alexander III’s death, was a clumsy and bad leader who didn't participate in government and caused people to know that they were being treated bad and resulted in violence in 1905 . Nicholas II renounced his thrown on March 2, 1917 , because of the February Revolution. In July 1918 , the Bolsheviks killed Nicholas along with his wife, Alexandra, and their children. ||
 * Vladimir Lenin || He over-turned the political and economic system of Western capitalism. He led the Bolshevik party. He was on the opposing party. As a politician, Lenin was very persuasive. ||

 * Leon Trotsky a.k.a. Leon Bronstien || He was a Bolshevik leader, a big part in the October Revolution and joined with Lenin. He was head of the Revolutionary Military Committee.
 * Joseph Stalin a.k.a. Joseph Dzhugashvili || He was a Bolshevik leader who became known after Lenin’s return to Petrograd in April 1917 . Stalin was a secondary figure during the October Revolution, he gained Lenin’s attention as a useful ally and Lenin gave him a position as commissar of nationalities. He wasn't even from Russia. Lenin felt he would be a good ambassador to the many ethnic minorities in the former Russian Empire. After the revolution, Stalin became very powerful and eventually over threw Lenin as leader of the Soviet Union upon Lenin’s death in 1924 . ||
