2. The disputed area is where the natural resources and slave labour are.
It's utterly unlike the real world.

3. Oh, a little. If I didn't know where that map was from...
I saw it on the 1984 wikipedia article the other day. Since I've started to read that book, I love it more and more. But it makes me more and more frightened.

7. A word of warning: You won't like the ending...
But I guess you've already picked up enough background information from your environment to guess the outcome.

I've lost count of how many times I've read it...

and the movie is perhaps the best adaptation of a book ever!

14. That wasn't a correction...more an addendum.
Both statements are correct. And not. And gone down the memory hole in turn. :)

16. Guess that's what I remembered from the book:
Oceania was at war with EVERYONE and everyone else was at war with everyone. Halliburton will make more money that way.
