Individually: Napoleon (after a protracted power-struggle with Snowball, who was the other prominent pig)
sddsddean has obviously not read it for a long time if he/she thinks that Major died in mysterious circumstances after the Rebellion. Major was the old pig who originated the idea of animals taking over the farm and running it for themselves; he died peacefully of old age long before the rebellion.
The story (and yes, it is brilliant, and you should read it) has close parallels with the Russian Revolution:
Mr Jones is Tsar Nicholas II
old Major is Marx
Napolean is Stalin
Snowball is Trotsky
The battle of the cowshed is the civil war
The battle of the windmill is the Second World War
The windmill is the programme of industrialisation
The killing of the traitors is the purges
Boxer is the working masses / Stakhanov
at first mr jones ran the farm, which the animals overthrew after having a speech from major, the old boar (who died cause he was old., was it not?) the pigs then automatically assumed power, with Napoleon and Snowball the two main contenders for control, Snowball was ousted, Napoleon took over, and the pigs slowly took up the appearance of humans. it ends with the rest of the animals watching the pigs round a dinner table, who now look like humans.
