Theoretically, it was eurasia, I think? But we all know it was based on the UK.

Every hyper-beaurecratic dystopia is based in the UK, with good reason.

The book takes place in Oceania, which is basically the anglosphere(Britain, US, Canada etc.) Eurasia was the standin for the soviets controlling the Soviet union plus western continental Europe. East Asia was the third power that was basically greater china.

Thought so too (damn I read that a long time ago now) but apparently it was Oceania. Which the UK was actually a part of in-universe.
