Napoleon As A Manipulate Leader

One way Napoleon was able to stay in charge was by using Animalism. Napoleon used the seven commandments as a way of Animalism. In the seven commandments humans are presumed as an enemy. Their ways were also speculated as bad, like commandment five which states no animal shall drink alcohol or commandment four which states no animal shall wear clothes. But animals are conjectured as good and the opposite of humans as it states in

Napoleon Bonaparte was a great leader until he took his power too far. He helped France get out of their debt and also won multiple territories from winning wars. He continued to strengthen France with his great leadership and military strategies. Eventually, though, he began to abuse his power. He proceeded through a war, without forfeit and experienced a great defeat. During his time of power Napoleon was a paradox. Napoleon’s fall from being a great leader taught us that, sometimes when people get too used to having so much power and authority, they may abuse their powers to a large extent.

Napoleon had already been marked as a prominent pig because he had a reputation of getting things his own way. By being active in the debates, he received much attention and notice from the animals. He also garnered support from those who agreed with his views but were unable to express themselves. Thus, he became a representative of these animals.

Every country needs a leader, which they deserve to have to lead them to be a great nation. A leader has to be good at decision-making capabilities and should know the difference between right and wrong decision for his nation’s integrity. He should possess feelings such as being humble, strong, and brave to protect and think for his nation and people. Unfortunately, not all leaders have the qualities to become a great leader. Many of them are just hungry for power and don’t care about his people. The first leader I choose is Louis XIV. Louis XIV was a ruler of France who ruled over France from 1643 to 1715. He was executed by Robespierre in 1715 because of the revolt against him. He wasn’t a good leader and his people didn’t like

One of the many awful things he did was he proclaimed that whoever killed, snowball would be rewarded. He would also kill any animals he believed were working with Snowball, breaking the commandment that said no animal shall kill another animal. He also formed one single commandment after breaking all of the other ones, which was “ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS” ( 194). This shows that the pigs finally established dominance over the animals, and no longer believed that all animals were equal. Another action that showed that Napoleon was taking dominance over the other animals was when he took away some of the dreams that at the beginning was once promised to them, such as “The luxuries of which Snowball had once taught the animals to dream, the stalls with electric light and Hot and cold water, and the three-day week, were no longer talked about. He said, lay in working hard and living frugally” ( 185). This shows that the animals were promised great things, but this all changed when Napoleon's desire for power clouded all of his previous beliefs. Lastly, the pigs and Napoleon appeared one day walking in their hind legs and showing qualities of humans until one day in the eyes of the animals they become so human like, it was impossible to tell between humans and pigs. The animals

Firstly, Napoleon uses manipulation to generate a cult of personality in the Animal Farm. Napoleon directly shows how he manipulated the animals as he believed “...[weaker] animals on Animal Farm did more work and [would] receive less food than any animals in the country” (92).Napoleon shows how he only cares about himself as he uses the animals. He would make the animals do labour to support himself and to be powerful.The animals would agree to everything that he said because they believed that Napoleon wanted the best for them. Napoleon made the animals believe that they were in better conditions even though “starvation seemed to stare them in the face.” (50). He did a great job to hid the reality from the animals. His thoughts and

Napoleon is the example of a more dictatorial leader. He is more greedy for power and therefore corruption existed when he was ruling. He does not show much interest in the welfare of the animals, which means he only cares about himself but not about anyone else. He uses several methods to take and maintain control of the farm. He is quiet yet intimidating. Early on in Animal Farm, Napoleon takes Jessie and Bluebell’s nine newborn puppies. These puppies become the forefront of his campaign of fear. He uses them to gain power by eliminating his nemesis. Napoleon uses his intellect to good effect as far as self-interest is concerned. But a real good leader never uses fear to gain the power. He instills fear as a way of giving the animal no chance to argue about what he says. This allows him to run the farm in his

While Jones' tyranny can be somewhat excused due to the fact that he is a dull-witted drunkard, Napoleon's can only be ascribed to his blatant lust for power. The very first description of Napoleon presents him as a "fierce-looking" boar "with a reputation for getting his own way." Throughout the novel, Napoleon's method of "getting his own way" involves a combination of propaganda and terror that none of the animals can resist. Note that as soon as the revolution is won, Napoleon's first action is to steal the cows' milk for the pigs. Clearly, the words of old Major inspired Napoleon not to fight against tyranny, but to seize the opportunity to establish himself as a dictator. The many crimes he commits against his own comrades range from seizing nine puppies to "educate" them as his band of killer guard dogs to forcing confessions from innocent animals and then having them killed before all the animals' eyes.

The years 1799-1804 in France were forever marked by Napoleon's ascension to power and subsequent rule. Napoleon and his actions became essentially the driving force of France whenever he was in power. Everything that happened went through him, and nothing was without his oversight. The mark Napoleon left still lasts to this day, and he is a vital part of world history. But overall, the major marks that Napoleon left from 1799-1804 can be simplified to two main points: Napoleon's civil reforms and his consolidation of power.

Napoleon uses his pack of dogs as a threat to everybody else on the farm. Napoleon also went against the seven commandments in order to become predominant, “Immediately the dogs bounded forward, seized four of the pigs by the ear and dragged them, squealing with pain and terror, to Napoleon's feet,” as said in the book (82-83). Napoleon used violence as a tool of physical oppression. If any animal rebels or questions the pigs leadership, he or she can expect to face Napoleon's punishment. But Napoleon did not need to worry about protesting against him anymore because he later got rid of public meetings.

With Squealer and other pigs, and also his dogs in his side, made him to have more power than others in the farm. Napoleon used all his knowledge to control the animal farm, but power that Napoleon had led animal farm to be in crisis. Napoleon had corrupted the whole idea of animalism and the seven commandments. He began to change the commandments that “all animals are equal but others are more equal” which in the first commandment didn’t state that. Because Napoleon was the only leader that led the animal farm, it made him to have an absolute power that can led him to be arrogance.

He is cruel, stubborn, ruthless, a liar, and is conceited. Napoleon abuses his power with manipulation of language. “All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others.” (123).

​The final defeat of Napoleon Bonaparte at Waterloo and the collapse of the French Empire left a bittersweet mood in France. Many, tired of the long war and declining morale, welcomed a fresh start. Others, however, missed the sweet taste of empire and detested defeat and the foreign dissection of French territory. In exile, the Bonapartes waited for a chance and a member of the family who could restore honor to their name. Louis Napoleon met the description. Staging multiple failed coups, Napoleon rejected failure and instead took a more patient approach. Finally, in December of 1888, Napoleon swept into France from exile in England and won the Presidency in a landslide victory. Immediately, Napoleon set to work at home, working on the

In Animal Farm, Napoleon was able to show how greed and abuse of power can change oneself. Napoleon used his rank in the farm to change the commandments so that the rules and the farm would be in his way. “But a few days later Muriel, reading over the Seven Commandments to herself, noticed that there was yet another of them which the animals had remembered wrong. They had thought the Fifth Commandment was "No animal shall drink alcohol," but there were two words that they had forgotten. Actually the Commandment read: "No animal shall drink alcohol to excess." The more Muriel looked at the commandments, the more wrong she knew it looked. Napoleon changed the original commandments to suit his wants to make sure the animals were in line for their jobs and did not rebel. His power of being the leader of the

Napoleon resorts to acts of violence, fear-mongering, and deception in order to control the other animals. The hens protested in handing over their eggs, especially those ready for hatching and attempted to lay their eggs far from the pigs' reach. However, Napoleon is displeased with the hens' behaviour and "ordered the hens’ rations to be stopped,"(30) as well as threatening those who thought of helping the hens the punishment of death. In
