revolution on animal farm. Even though a lot of things changed after the rebellion‚ I find that overall everything is still just as difficult for most animals‚ while some animals have higher power on the farm. The first thing that the animals changed about the farm is the name. They changed the name of the farm from Manor farm‚ to Animal farm.
