Answer:

Animal Farm is a novel about an imaginary farm in England absent of humans and completely run by animals. While no specific time, or when the story takes place, is revealed in the novel, it is allegorical to the political events in Russia between 1917 and 1945; the Russian Revolution and rise of communism.
