Animal farm, the movie : )

I think the movie is very different from the book. There are a lot of changes. In the movie old major got shot by Mr. Jones but in the book he died of old age. The changed the national anthem. Old major got chopped up and sold so man can eat him. Also Mr. Jones and Mrs. P slept together while Mr. P slept because he was drunk. Jessie the dog had babies in the movie but in the book the pigs had babies. Instead of the storm ruining the windmill Mr. Jones blew it up with dynamite. But snowball was still blamed. In the end napoleon dies and the animals are free and they get new owners but in the book napoleon just turns into a human and that’s the end of the book. In the movie the animals live happily ever after. So the movie and the book are very different. I personally like the book much better than the movie.

the animal im most like in animal farm

The animal I am most like would be clover. I would be clover because I just listen and do what I am told. She does not go against napoleon and what he says. She just follow along and don’t really rebel. When she feels something is not right the n she goes and checks over the rules. Like on page 45 it says clover , who thought she remembered a rule against beds she went to the barn to read the seven commandments. Another example from the book is on page 49 when it says only boxer and clover never lost heart. Which would be that they still followed with what napoleon said. This is why i am most like clover.

In my country America it is not mandatory to join the military . It is a free decision. In the worst case possible i would fight for my country. For example, i would fight if i was forced. If i my family were being threatened i would fight. If people or my own life were being threatened i would defend them in all ways. To defend my country i will fight under any circumstances to save people.

The king is dead!

In the past week our experiences in the kingdom of M1 with king coyle was hard.
we had many diffuculties with the laws he made. We also had taxation without representation just like the 13 colonies. we had minimum religious freedom as the citizens of the 13 colonies had. we had to have a stamp on all paper that was bought by our money. This is called the stamp act. We had a curfue and could not speack what we had to say. If we did not follow these laws we had to go to georgia and were conflicted of treason. Just as the citizens of the 13 colonies. We planned on a decleration of indepandance treaty but got over rulled by the kings loyal citizens. Since we had to pay royal taxes and fees most of the people were poor.

where 43rd war was held

The 43rd war is based in El Salvador because in the "Nations of the World Atlas" It ways that El Salvador was torn by civil war. The main religion is Roman Catholic (Collins), like in the book, when the villagers died, it says that they put a cross on the grave. The cross is a Catholic sign, and the main language is Spanish. They speak Spanish a lot in the book. (43rd War). It says that there is a lot of guerilla warfare in El Salvador which agrees with the book because they use it a lot.

decleration of independance sumary

when the people in the community feel they are not being treated equally they need to break away from the government and they need to say why. The government needs to hold their responsibility if you believe they are not doing well it is the responsibility of all people to build a new government. They should only change the government when things start getting very bad. You need only to change the government with major things not small things






King George the third did many horrible things to the people he ruled over
For example he imposed taxes on the people without their say. The people who were very poor must have disagreed with this very strongly. He also took the people as captives to fight against their own country, friends and family. King George also cut off the trading from other parts of the world. He put huge bodies of armed troops with them. King George also brought the people to jury on cases that may not be true.






The people of America we now state you are free men. We take you away from the unjustful treatment from King George. We are enemies in war and friends in peace therefore we are all equal. As a new free country the document says we are now free from taxation without representation and treated equal.

The main visual issues would be the words join or die the countries are all separated on the snake. The issues the political cartoon is about was there were argument, fighting, and disagreements in opinions and they all got separated.The cartoonists opinion on this issue would be the cartoonist compares the 13 colonies to a snake so maybe he doesn’t like the idea of the 13 colonies The evidence that supports my opinion would be the words join and die are in capitals and everyone is separated. To make the cartoon more persuasive the cartoonist could have supported the issue on join or die part.
