Final answer:
Speculating on Snowball's fate after fleeing mirrors Napoleon Bonaparte's historical exiles and final defeat. Snowball's death could have cemented Napoleon's power, much like Napoleon Bonaparte's Waterloo defeat ended his European influence.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student question refers to a scenario involving Snowball from Animal Farm, which is fictional, but for the purpose of the exercise, let's treat it as an historical analogy. The provided information doesn't directly pertain to Animal Farm but elucidates the historical context of Napoleon Bonaparte's impact on France and Europe. Snowball's fate after fleeing the farm can be speculated upon using historical parallels: similar to Napoleon's exile, Snowball may also have faced various challenges or potentially even garnered support elsewhere for a return. Had Snowball been killed, comparing to the historical impact of Napoleon's downfall, it might have solidified Napoleon’s (in Animal Farm, the pig counterpart) control over the farm and prevented any subsequent challenges to his power, similar to how Napoleon Bonaparte's final defeat ended his political and military influence in Europe.
