How to create George Orwell's 1984

Postby Demy Fiyeriter » Mon Oct 17, 2016 12:45 pm

I just got introduced to NationStates by a friend and immediately thought of George Orwell's novel 1984. For those who don't know this novel: 1) Shame on you 2) It's basically about an omnipresent "big brother" government that controls its citizens with perpetual war and manipulating history records to match their needs. I was wondering what it would take to create a your own big brother, authoritarian/dictatorship in this game

There are plenty of issues with authoritarian choices worthy of 1984. They will come up eventually.

Try putting yourself in BB's shoes. One big thing would be to eliminate privacy. Monitor everything! Next, the cult of personality and a totalitarian system. Soon enough you'll have the Oceania of your dreams!

Now we must get going, the two minutes of hate are about to begin.

Doublethink comrade!

Also complete Collectivism is needed. One cannot be a single part of the Party, one must BE ONE with the Party.
