Ralph is the elected leader of the boys. He is 12 years old and is from the country. A democratic leader, Ralph makes the mistake of trusting Jack. This leads to the collapse of the society. Ralph wants order and a stable, civilized village. He is the main builder of the soon discarded huts. He has great trust in another boy called Piggy, whose scientific mind, and glasses, allow the society to survive as long as it did. Ralph's symbol of leadership is the conch that he and Piggy found and used to call all of the boys.
In the story Ralph represents the protagonist and society's rational side. His opposite is Jack who represents the wilder side and the dangers of succumbing to impulses. The symbols around him are the conch, the signal fire, Piggy's glasses, and the beastie.
The last chapter we read was chapter 4.
