Animal Farm Connections

The book Animal Farm is related to the real world very closely. Other than the fact that it uses animals instead of people, it is a good book to show how corrupt governments can form. A text to world connection I found was purely the fact that it shows the pigs' rise to power. First it starts off as the leader, Snowball, and then it  turns into a tyranny when the forceful leader, Napoleon, attacks with his vicious dogs. A text to self connection I made, and this is probably true for most kids is the fact that my parents rule the house. No, it isn't a tyranny, and you have a lot of rights, but it is more related to when Snowball was in power. And a text to text connection I made was to the book, The Hunger Games. The connection isn't the actions in the book, but how the capitol forcibly took the power, much like Napoleon took power from Snowball. From my description given, what connections can you guys come up with?
