The pigs of Animal Farm were an allegory of the leaders of the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 in Russia led by Leon Trotsky and Joseph Stalin.
Just as Mr. Jones was treating the animals unfairly, the revolutionists claimed that the leaders of the Russian Provisional Government was treating them unfairly. The Rebellion in Animal Farm satirized the Bolshevik Revolution.
When the revolutionists defeated the Russian Provisional Government, the leaders established the Soviet Union and created a communist government, stating that all that were with the Union were equal. This is represented in Animal Farm by the animal's takeover of Mr. Jones' farm and creating their own set of rules where "all animals are equal".
With the establishment of the Soviet Union, the revolutionists, Trotsky and Stalin, were proclaimed the leaders, just as the pigs, especially Snowball and Napoleon, were the leaders of Animal Farm. Trotsky, who is represented by Snowball was slowly gaining more trust from the public which aroused suspicion in Stalin, who is represented by Napoleon. Stalin decides to exile Trotsky by making the public believe Trotsky was against them. This is analogous to Snowball being chased off by Napoleon and his guard dogs in Animal Farm.
With Snowball and Trotsky removed, Napoleon and Stalin were declared the sole leaders of Animal Farm and the Soviet Union, respectively. Through a series of plans, both the governments of Animal Farm and the Soviet Union turn corrupt, treating their followers poorly and brutally. In the end, under the rule of Napoleon and Stalin, Animal Farm and the Soviet Union become exactly what they were rebelling against in the first place.
