The three fictional superstates of the dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four are Oceania (black), Eurasia (red), and Eastasia (yellow). 'Disputed territories' are indicated in grey.

Orwell may have gotten the borders wrong but more and more each day it feels like everything else is lining up for the conditions in 1984.
