Russian Revolution‚ Animal Farm helps us determine and reflect all the different lessons learnt in different parts of the book. The lessons that I could pick out were politics‚ corruption due to power/absolute power‚ equality- more equal when the system is corrupted‚ propaganda used for convincing and also when someone receives absolute power‚ it is not going to the good of the people but to oneself only.
