There is one major example of when tyranny is used in Animal Farm. The major example is when Napoleon calls a meeting between all the animals in the barn. The meeting is brutal and short, it starts with the pigs asking all animals to confess to committing bad crimes like talking to the enemy Snowball or stealing items from the harvest. Next come the brutal part, the animals are lined up and the dogs pulled the animals throats out with their sharp teeth, in total that meeting costed the lives of four pigs, three hens, three sheep and a goose. Afterwards all the animals that weren’t killed struggled to feel comfortable and some of them wanted to work harder for Napoleon because they were in fear of being killed in the same way. Tyrant strategies were often used under the rule of Napoleon, it became more prominent and frequently used towards the end of the book when Napoleon's way of ruling became lots more cruel and selfish. It was also used when Napoleon organised the dogs to run Snowball off the farm. Snowball was scared out of the farm because Napoleon organised the dogs to chase Snowball until they caught and killed him or he got off the farm.
