Oceania (fiction)



         


Oceania is one of the three super-states in George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, and is the location of the novel's version of London where Winston Smith, the main character, lives. It is composed of the two American continents, the British Isles, and the southern half of Africa below the Congo River. It also controls – to different degrees at various times during the course of its eternal war with Eurasia and Eastasia – polar regions, the islands of the Pacific, and Antarctic regions. It occasionally conquers the rest of Africa, but is later driven back by Eurasia. Oceania doesn't have a single capital, although what could be seen as regional capitals such as London are in place. (See: Goldstein's book.)
