OCEANIA
GEORGE ORWELL'S dystopian novel, 1984, depicts three mega nations at perpetual war. Many readers in the West considered the Soviet Union to be Oceania with Joseph Stalin to be Big Brother. They could not imagine that they, themselves, lived in the evil empire. Ronald Reagan could not imagine that. With the Soviet Union gone since 1991, there is no one else to blame for the world's evils. We in the West stand out like a sore thumb. This map clearly illustrates the situation in the novel.

Big Brother never was Joseph Stalin in Orwell's novel. He always was friendly old Uncle Sam who has been leading us all to extinction by "freeing everyone to death."
