For the
majority of the story, Oceania is at war with Eastasia and is allied with Eurasia. Oceania is
engaged in an ongoing war to use up the country's natural resources and maintain a hysterical ,
which allows the government to tighten its grip on the population. Despite the fact that none of
the three world superpowers can defeat each other, Oceania continues to engage in
warfare.
In chapter 9 of part 2, Big Brother completely switches its enemy in
the middle of Hate Week and declares war against its former ally, Eurasia. The Party also
insists that it was never at war against Eastasia, and the entire population accepts the Party's
contradicting . However,is aware that the population only accepts Eurasia as their new enemy
because they practice doublethink. Regardless of Oceania's "enemy,"tells Winston that
it doesn't matter and that the continual warfare is a tactic used to control and suppress the
masses.
