2. A president named Viktor Yanukovich was in power. The country already had suspicions that he was corrupt and the public was not happy with him. Public unhappiness began to grow. Then in November of 2013, Yanukovich took away his promise to sign a trade agreement with Europe that would bring the country closer to the west and reduce it dependence on Russia. This caused massive protests to start. People of all social classes started to get together and this can be traced as the start of this revolution.

4. Olexander Turchynov, interim president. He was Mr Yanukovych's arch-rival at the 2010 presidential election Arseniy Yatsenyuk, interim prime minister.

6. The revolution was able to over throw Yanukovych and now Petro Poroskenko is in office. There are still problems with Russia and Vladmir Putin. He continues to want to keep Ukraine from allying with Western Europe. Current fighting continues in the Donbass area of eastern Ukraine. The success of the revolution is unclear as of right now. We will not be able to judge if the efforts of this revolution were worth it until more is sorted out. The situation is still unfolding.

7. This revolution is related to the revolution in animal farm because Napoleon and Viktor are very similar. Both Viktor and Napoleon were corrupted and took advantage of thing for their own befit. Napoleon Just used the weakness of the animals against them and Viktor just use the weakness of Ukraine's government against the people. Also the revolution in both situation may not be worth it. In the animals revolution efforts to over throw jones may be useless because Napoleon just control them and ultimately make everything pretty much the same. In Ukraine's revolution the protest just cause deaths and more problems with Russia making the efforts seem questionable.
