No, it doesn't just happen to resemble it. Animal Farm is a very direct allegory of the Russian Communist Revolution. Napoleon the pig represents Stalin for example. The Wikipedia page covers it fairly extensively: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_Farm

Those allegories are used as a tool to make you aware of individual moral issues surrounding how tyranny is created by the individual. Life is not all about political distinctions. In fact, political distinctions (I.E Communism), can blind an individual from many realities.
