Final Exam Order and Chaos

Order.
(Command)
I believe that the order is commanded their men should do something.
“The telescreen received and transmitted simultaneously. Any sound that Winston made, above the level of a very low whisper, would be picked up by it; moreover, so long as he remained within the field of vision which the mental plaque commanded, he could be seen as well as heard.” (George Orwell 1984)
(Government)
I learned about order is that if a person in authority, they order something, they tell them to do it. So, the totalitarian government relative orders because they always command their staff in there society. When Winston tortured, the O’brien insist on obedience.
For example,
“How many fingers am I holding up, Winston?”
“Four”
“And if the Party says that it is not four but five – then how many?”
“Four” (George Orwell 1984)
It means Winston know that this is wrong, but he should said right. The reason why that is order from government so, he should accept without reserve. Moreover, this is the rule of the government in their society.
(Military)
The order is like military, because people should be obedient to their superiors.
The Winston’s society has something in common with military.
For instance,
“They’ll shoot me I don’t care they’ll shoot me in the back of the neck I don’t care down with big brother they always shoot you in the back of the neck I don’t care down with big brother.” (George Orwell 1984)
Both military and his government have boss and they take orders from their superiors.

Choas.
(Confusion, Disorder)
I leanred about chaos is a state of complete disorder and confusion.
The chaos mean like confusion. This example is that Winston know that staff should love only their government and his boss, but he fall in love with Julia so he confusion with government and Julia.
“Untill they become conscious they will never revel, and until after they have reveled they cannot become conscious.” (George Orwell 1984)
The comeplex behavior implies complex causes.
“The classification of the constituents of a chaos, nothing less here is essayed.”(James Gleick "Chaos and Beyond.")
