Oceania fight knowing that their is no real reason to fight other to be occupied or just because. After many years they know that no one is going to win or lose so it is just a constant war. The text states, "The essential act of war is destruction, not necessarily of human lives, but of the products of human labour. War is a way of shattering to pieces, or pouring into the stratosphere, or sinking in the depths of the sea, materials which might otherwise be used to make the masses too comfortable, and hence, in the long run, too intelligent" (pg. 241). This quote shows how they believe that war has a higher purpose that benefits the society. They believe that what they are doing is helping their society so they keep the war going believe that they are doing good.

The war that they are fighting has been going on for many years now. It has hit a plateau and they have just kept fighting with no end. The text expresses this when it states, "To understand the nature of the present war—for in spite of the regrouping which occurs every few years, it is always the same war—one must realize in the first place that it is impossible for it to be decisive. None of the three super-states could be definitively conquered even by the other
two in combination" (pg. 236). This quote shows how they are in a infinite circle of just fighting each other. It even states how even if two were to combine they would still not be able to beat the one by itself. This shows how all three super states are too powerful to lose but also meaning that nobody looses. This just causes them to never end the war and just keep battling out of pure ignorance.

The war took up so much of the citizens time because they had to work constantly throughout the day. This caused them to get used to the long hours of working and straining themselves. This is seen in the text when it says, "Now it was all over, and
he had literally nothing to do, no Party work of any description, until tomorrow morning" (pg. 227). This quote shows how Winston's life revolved around work during the war. He had literally just worked 90 hours in 5 days and got a break. He still did not know what to do with his time after working for so long. He knew nothing else then work so when he didn't work he was lost. He just waited tell the next day of work which was because it was his life.

A war has never been easy, war are usually very hard and straining on ones physical and mental health. This is not the case for the civilians in Oceania. It is seen in the text when it says, "He had worked more than ninety hours in five days. So had everyone else in the Ministry" (pg. 227). This quote shows how absurd the working conditions were during the war. Working 90 hours in 5 days is working 18 hours a day for 5 days straight. That is crazy to think about because in our society now people see it hard and straining to work 40 hours. 40 hours is not even half of the hours they were working for. This showed how the war created a essence for everybody to work to their limits.

At this point in time in 1984 the war has been going on for years. They have been running out of materials, and a reason to fight. The text even states, "War, however, is no longer the desperate, annihilating struggle that it was in the early decades of the twentieth century. It is a warfare of limited aims between combatants who are unable to destroy one another, have no material cause for fighting and are not divided by any genuine ideological difference" (pg 235). This quote shows how in 1984 the war is their peace because they have no reason to be fighting anymore, but they do it either wise because of how normalized it is for them now. The war is not even their first priority anymore, they don't see a reason for them to actually have a great worry for it because the three super states fighting are in a plateau. This is because nobody is actually winning or losing so they have kept the war going on, just as if it was their normal life.
