Answer 1

The best description of the allegory or hidden meaning of "Animal Farm" is **"Power leads to corruption."** The novella illustrates how the initial ideals of the animal rebellion are ultimately corrupted by the pigs, who, as they gain power, become indistinguishable from the oppressive humans they sought to overthrow. This theme highlights the dangers of absolute power and the ease with which good intentions can be undermined.
