err...not sure if you're being serious or funny but if you google 'Columbia', that is actually the name of the female personification of America. :3
Christopher Columbus wasn't female, silly.
As the last posters said; Bioshock: Infiinite is probably a mix of "1984" and the book Follower mentioned, "Democracy in America," (which I haven't read but I have flicked through it and seen that it is partly a critique of the early Independent USA.) There were floating fortresses in 1984 and I think that connection is very strong there to Columbia's being a city/fortress in the sky as the back story relates Columbia repressing the Boxer Rebellion in China.
Bioshock Infinite will be a critique of political ideals gone against themselves, just like in Bioshock 1 in the way that Andrew Ryan's (Ayn Rand's) dream went horribly wrong. (I only JUST noticed that their names are practically an anagram, "wow, duh!")
The political doctrine gone wrong in 1984 is English Communism aka "INGSOC." It was a revolution that went global and as a result there were 3 great superpowers all lead by similar political doctrines but always fighting each other.
In the INGSOC government there were four ministries- 'Mini-love' (war/police etc.), 'Mini-plenty' (rationing), 'Mini-true' (falsifying records), and one other which I forgot. These ministries are actually the opposite of what their ministries are named after and what they are supposed to represent and provide.
The revolutionary INGSOC government was always telling it's people how much better they were than the rest of the world, Europa and Eurasia (the other 2 superpowers that they were constantly fighting.) In fact, each of these superpowers was worse than any country ever before it and each equally as horrible to its own people as they were to their enemies.
If Bioshock: Infinite contains a farcical government that contends that it is the happiest, most peaceful and most correct, whilst actually being the worst in all 3 of those areas, it is Orwellian. Or, if it has a Big Brother theme, another major theme of 1984, then it is also Orwellian.
Notice the similarities between the real USA and Bioshock Infinite; the founding fathers are quasi-worshipped and used to support arguments of politicians. These arguments are often interpreted in various conflicting ways. (Very similar to religious texts like the Qu'ran and the Bible and Shakespeare (he is holy to me) are interpreted in countless ways.)
The USA/Columbia sees itself as the newest and most revolutionary country in the world (revolutionary as in the most democratic and modern, not as rebellious.)
They revere the revolutionary goals of the founding fathers as gospel and it is constantly invoking their idealism which, it won't admit, is IMPOSSIBLE to attain. They will only fail and end up accomplishing what they tried so hard to avoid, (See the Russian Communist Revolution and "Animal Farm" by George Orwell.)
If I could write this much about books whilst talking about a video game, it must a good game! I'm going to go play Bioshock again while I wait for this to be released, and beat it for the 4th time!
P.S. Fallout is another great game series with good literary influences/references.
You just blew my mind.
