the government that is seen in 1984 is similar to something that we can see now in North Korea, the government is ruler of everything, and also its people are convinced that they are richest country in the world, that they life isn the best of conditions, that there couldm be nothing better and that every country comes to then for help, but the reality is that they are actually the opposite, but the government cant let the people know all this because it would take faith away from the party.
the problem with the government in 1984 that makes it different then the society in today’s world, is the fact that in 1984 they are convinced about the great war that is always happening, also the fact that everyone in 1984 knows what happens to people that commit crimes, but in today’s world its different because you cant convince people of things like the great war.
