A complex sentence is a sentence which has one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. Dependent clauses cannot stand on their own since they do not represent a complete thought. This is why the following sentences are not grammatically correct.
*Before you eat the sandwich,

Answer:
George Orwell wrote an allegory of the Russian Revolution, and used the character of Old Major to explore the philosophy of Karl Marx. Old Major states many of Marx’s ideas, such as a belief in equality and in the elimination of class divisions. Both Old Major and Marx also advocate for rebellion to end the oppression of workers. Marx says that the means of production should be held in common. Similarly, Old Major believes that the animals could run the farm together. The main difference between them is that Marx writes about people, while Major speaks about animals. Both call for a more just society.
