America's War With Eurasia

Decent Essays
Before the wars with Eurasia, there were no other wars between Oceania and a foreign land. Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia, and that is for certain. Years ago when America had been under the control of Great Britain, they too had only been at war with Eurasia. Nobody tried to take America away from Oceania; it was rightfully the Party’s land. The Party only let a select group of people move to America at first to conquer new land in 1607. Big brother chose the dedicated and loyal party members he knew would carry out his wishes starting in Jamestown, Virginia. Those people were upset they had to leave Oceania; it had always been their home that provided so much for them. They were never poor or needy in Oceania because the party

    Jon Wiener’s How We Forgot the Cold War is an engaging tour of American monuments dedicated to the failed remembrance of the Cold War. Through a five-part study guiding the reader through different eras of remembrance, Wiener gives detailed accounts of monuments, memorials, and museums dedicated to the official memory of the Cold War. Conservative thought dominated for much of the book. Through the decades, conservative politicians fought to disseminate their belief of the conflict as a triumph of good over evil and the equation of the defeat of totalitarianism with the defeat of fascism in World War II. Wiener’s travels on the surface are simply a road trip through time and space visiting different sites which remember the conflict in varying…

    In 1946, Canada gave political asylum to Igor Gouzenko, a soviet sipher clerk responsible for stealing 109 documents, which proved soviet spies were operating in Canada and the United States. Gouzenko’s actions arguably began this period of tension between the Americas and the Soviet Union, now known as the Cold War. When Canada accepted Gouzenko’s claims against the Soviet’s as reality, we launched ourselves into the Cold War. Although the majority of the conflict was between the United States and the Soviet Union, Canada became involved through participation in the Korean War, the Suez Canal crisis as well as the United Nation’s (UN) peace promotion, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). In addition to that, Canada was unexpectedly…

    It may seem logical to believe that Americans had kept isolationist beliefs during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as America had always predominately isolationist beliefs, ever since these ideas were stated George Washington’s farewell address in 1796. However, once Americans began to industrialize, there were many people who began to emerge from their shells of anti-imperialism after the brutal fight of the Civil War, due to partly an increase of interest in foreign markets. Americans wanted to wreak more economic benefits; Americans wanted to own places like Hawaii to gain a plethora of money from cash crops like sugarcane. Those who supported pro-imperialism, however, often argued with those who felt it necessary…

    The earliest American foreign policy successes formulated through the consistent turmoil that engrossed Europe. The historian Samuel Flagg Bemis even coined the phrase “Europe’s distresses led to America’s earliest diplomatic successes.” From the nation’s bloody revolution, to major expansions across the North American continent, major victories for the United States was an outcome of war torn European nations unable to preserve their power in the west and cunning American legislators that parted from traditional diplomacy. Americans fought an uphill battle for respect and global recognition starting with the American Revolution. Patriots kept the British at bay in the early phases of the war but could not sustain under continued offense…

    During the Cold War, the communism of the Soviet Union posed as a major threat to presidents Truman, Eisenhower, and Kennedy, who were the ones responsible for maintaining the United States’ system of capitalism throughout the world and preventing communist governments. However, during each of their presidencies, each of them approached foreign policy during the Cold War with differences and similarities. All three of these presidents, however, followed the guidelines of the containment policy, but each of them made changes in order to fulfill the present needs, which sometimes had consequences. President Truman was the first president to encounter the threats of communism from the Soviet Union and enforce the foreign policy of containment. Containment was first enforced when president Truman realized that in order…

    The American foreign policy has changed over time has reflected the change in its national interest. The American foreign policy is a major issue for the people today is because the terrorists just attacked Paris and over a hundred citizens were killed in the aftermath.

    Foreign policy has been a struggle for the US, ever since immigration was started. However, many advancements were made, both for good and bad as a more modern America progressed. As Pearl Harbor was bombed, as the League of Nations failed, and as the US tried to stay neutral and isolated, the advancements of foreign policy were changed drastically. From 1920 to 1945 those changes were the most profound, as America became a more modern, civilized society. One of the vital pivot points of foreign policy was in 1941, when Pearl Harbor was bombed.…

    They both want obedience and control, but most of all they both want power. In 1984, Big Brother has given a sense of fear that makes the characters in the book to have no emotion whatsoever. “When he got up to it he saw that a human hand severed at the wrist… He kicked the thing into the gutter, and then, to avoid the crowd, turned down a side street to the right (84).” The Party defeats anyone 's purpose of having any kind of emotion.…

    Big Brother’s main slogan is, “WAR IS PEACE / FREEDOM IS SLAVERY / IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH” (Orwell 4). This is not a very trusting or accepting phrase. These phrases are all contradictory towards each other. War is not a peaceful action, slavery is the lack of freedom, and strength does not include ignorance. Big Brother is teaching nothing but false ideas, but the citizens see him as a wonder, trusting,…
