What are they, and how do they relate? Does the novel shed any light on how current situations could be resolved or fixed?
Animal farm was an allegory that viewed a society under a dictatorship and communism. As a country that relates to communism, there would be North Korea left in the world. North Korean leader "comrade" Kim Jung-il taking over the country with his one-man-show politics(technically). Just like Napoleon, Kim Jung-il deceived the citizens for his own benefits. Governing going on in North Korea is pretty similar to the situations of this book. The citizens are exploited by the few elites that started up the government. However, the book itself and the message that the author gives only reveals the truth behind dictatorship and revolutions but does not give a resolution for the problem. It could be said that author had a message saying to us that true ideals can only be brought up and come to existence with interest of everyone(about the society).
Personally, I think that ideology of a human can't be perfect. Errors always occur and unexpected events take place and amazing people appear and disappear in human society. The moment that humans are able to get rid of all emotions and become 'God Like' will be the moment when ideology and all social ideas can come to existence. However, this won't have a meaning because literature would lose it's purpose as a desire and greed of a human being fulfilled in artistic way.
Well, if you have a solution or your personal feeling for this, say it!
THANK YOU FOR READING!

Napoleon is a bad pig.
I think all people want the power that Napoleon and Kim Jung Ill has.
I would want it too, if it means having my own country.
however, that is not right, and for a country to run with freedom it is not the way.
