||< Karl Marx-He was a German political philosopher He had the concept and ideas behind what is today considered Socialism and communism... the belief that people in a society should share equally in the work and the goods they get from there work. ||< Inventor(s) of Wikipedia-The reason this is because this person wants to share information to everyone equally without having price plans so that people don't get all the same knowledge this person just allows everyone to have the same knowledge. || animals and the only Berkshire on the farm he also has a reputation of getting his way History-He’s got a taste for power, and he shows this by training dogs to chase of snowball of the farm and he learns from the best which in this case Mr. Jones. ||< Joseph Stalin-He was apart the Bolshevik revolutionaries who brought the October Revolution and held the position of first General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union's Central Committee. While formally the office of the General Secretary was elective and was not initially regarded as the top position in the Soviet state, after Vladimir Lenin's death in 1924, Stalin managed to get more and more power in his hands, like when Napoleon had his power with the dogs. ||< A vice president-The reason is if a actual president passes away the vice president takes on all the responsibilities the president had and more power. This symbolizes it for me because Joseph Stalin and Napoleon both gained more responsibilities and power. || ||< Bourgeois class in Russia-Who were not outright unfaithful to the Bolsheviks.But did very little work that contributed to the revolution.Many Russians were actually anti-Bolshevik and fought against them in the Russian Civil War. The bourgeois often were happy enough to go along to the ideology so long as they didn’t have to do actual work in the lifestyle. When they were asked to make sacrifices, many abandoned the cause and fled to the West. ||< Taylor (My Older Sister)-The reason is when my mom ask her to do chores or anything she won't do actual work or make sacrafices like Mollie and the Bourgeois Class. || ||< Stalin's Secret Police-Stalin’s secret police force. The NKVD came to have an enormous role in Soviet life in the 1930s and 1940s. They assassinated Trotsky (Snowball) in Mexico.So to round it up they were like the nine dogs because they were the violent force that allowed Stalin to remain in power. ||<  || ||< Leon Trotsky-He was in second command to Lenin in the revolution. He was very important in Russia.Trotsky served as the People’s Commissar of Foreign Affairs, and played a important role in leading the relatively backward Red Army to victory in the Russian Civil War. ||< Protests-This symbolizes this for me because the people who protest want there life to better and other peoples lives like how Leon and Snowball wanted to make peoples lives better. || ||< Great Purge-It was a series of political repression and persecution in the Soviet Union controlled by Joseph Stalin.It involved a large scale of getting rid of the Communist Party and Government Officials. ||< Confessing-This symbolizes it for because my parents persecute me all the time to tell the trutNa || || The Tehran Conference:It was a meeting between Joseph Stalin,Franklin D Roosevelt, and Winston Churchwill. || Meetings-It is similar because basically they were all just meetings discussing something important. ||
