Animals suffer under Napoleon's rule from "summary" of Animal Farm by George Orwell
Under Napoleon's rule, the animals on the farm found themselves toiling harder than ever before. The pigs, led by Napoleon, began to live a life of luxury while the other animals worked endlessly to maintain the farm. Squealer, Napoleon's right-hand pig, convinced the other animals that their sacrifices were necessary for the greater good of the farm. The truth was twisted and manipulated to keep the animals in line, feeding them false promises of a better future under Napoleon's leadership. As time passed, the animals began to see the harsh reality of their situation. They were overworked, underfed, and living in fear of Napoleon's wrath. Any dissent or questioning of the regime was met with swift punishment, often in the form of violent retribution. The animals' spirits were broken as they watched their comrades disappear, never to be seen again. Napoleon's rule brought about a reign of terror on the farm. The once harmonious community of animals was now divided and suspicious of one another. The principles of Animalism, which had once united them in their quest for equality, were abandoned in favor of Napoleon's lust for power and control. The animals suffered not only physically but also emotionally, as they grappled with the betrayal of their once trusted leaders. Despite the suffering and hardship they faced, the animals on the farm were unable to overthrow Napoleon's tyrannical rule. Their spirits were crushed, and their will to fight back extinguished by the constant propaganda and manipulation orchestrated by Napoleon and his loyal followers. The once proud animals had become mere pawns in Napoleon's quest for absolute power, destined to live out their days in misery and oppression.
