PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
We at Nationwide Life Insurance Company are pleased to bring you the 2000
semi-annual report of the Nationwide Fidelity Advisor Variable Account.
During the first half of 2000 fixed income and equity markets took a hiatus from
their recent advances. It appears the Federal Reserve's interest rate hikers are
accomplishing the intended purpose. Recent economic statistics show some
moderation in the areas of home and vehicles sales because of the higher
interest costs. And, there are other favorable indications that the Fed may yet
"glide" the economy to a soft landing. Inflation remains low. Sustained
increases in worker productivity continue to dampen pricing pressures of an
increasingly tight labor pool. Corporate profitability growth remains viable. An
improving global economy bodes well for U.S. exporting businesses. While all
this provides a positive backdrop, we expect the markets will continue jittery
and volatile during the second half of the year as uncertainty over further Fed
actions persists. However, we believe patient investors in financial assets will
be amply rewarded when we move beyond this temporary respite.
Nationwide Life was a forerunner in the variable annuity and variable life
insurance business. We continue to develop new and innovative investment
products to better meet your financial planning and retirement needs. And, we
are equally committed to providing you, our valued customer, the exceptional
level of customer service you expect and deserve.

HOW TO READ THE SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT
This semi-annual report is a presentation of the variable account as a whole and
only describes the underlying contracts and products of the variable account in
general terms. Please note the variable account may have more than one variable
product available. Such products may have different under- lying mutual funds
available than those available in your contract. Therefore, not all funds listed
in this report may be available in your contract. Please refer to your most
recent account statement for specific information about your investment in the
Nationwide Fidelity Advisor Variable Account. Rules and regulations of the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission and recognized conventions of
Generally Accepted Accounting Principals prescribe the format and content of
this report.
We also invite you to call our service center at 1-800-494-1132 if you have
questions about your account, or you may access your account using our voice
response unit. And, please visit our web-site at www.nwannuities.com/fidelity
for additional information about your contract and to learn more about other
products and services offered by Nationwide Financial.
THE ANNUAL REPORT HAS FOUR MAJOR FINANCIAL SECTIONS:
STATEMENT OF ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND CONTRACT OWNER'S EQUITY
This statement begins on page 4 and lists all of the underlying mutual funds of
the variable account, the number of shares owned, the amount paid for the shares
and their market value as of the close of business on June 30, 2000. The mutual
funds are listed in alphabetical order. The market value of the assets changes
as the underlying mutual funds change in value. As contract owners make exchange
transactions between the funds, the number of shares increases or decreases
accordingly. When money is deposited or withdrawn by a contract owner, shares
are correspondingly purchased or redeemed. The total market value of the funds
is equal to the TOTAL INVESTMENTS of the variable account.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, if applicable, represents an asset of the variable account
for money market fund shares purchased by contract owners and reinvested
dividend shares added to contract owners' accounts, but not yet added to Total
investments. Total investments plus Accounts receivable equal TOTAL ASSETS of
the variable account.
ACCOUNTS PAYABLE, if applicable, is a liability of the variable account for
money market fund shares redeemed by contract owners' but not yet deducted from
Total investments.
Total assets minus Accounts payable equals CONTRACT OWNERS' EQUITY. A summary of
Contract owners' equity by funds series may be found on page 22. This summary
also includes investment return for the reporting period for each fund series.
STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS AND STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN CONTRACT OWNERS' EQUITY
These statements begin on page 6 and present the financial activity of each
underlying mutual fund sub-account of the variable account, for the periods
indicated.
The INVESTMENT ACTIVITY section shows income to the variable account for
reinvested dividends and capital gain distributions paid by the underlying
mutual funds. Also shown are the mortality, expense and administration charges
which are assessed through the daily unit value calculation and which represent
an expense to the variable account and its contract owners. This section also
shows the realized gain or loss as mutual fund shares are sold, and the change
in unrealized gain or loss, which represents the changes in market value of the
underlying fund shares.
The EQUITY TRANSACTIONS section illustrates the receipt of purchase payments, as
new contracts are sold or additional payments made to existing contracts. Also
presented are deductions from the variable account when the contract owners
withdraw money.
The sum of the above two sections represents the NET CHANGE IN CONTRACT OWNERS'
EQUITY which when added to the beginning Contract owners' equity equals Contract
owners' equity at the end of the reporting period.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, beginning on page 16, provide further disclosures
about the variable account and its underlying contract provisions.

At June 30, 2000, contract owners have invested in all of the above
funds. The contract owners' equity is affected by the investment
results of each fund, equity transactions by contract owners and
certain contract expenses (see note 2). The accompanying financial
statements include only contract owners' purchase payments pertaining
to the variable portions of their contracts and exclude any purchase
payments for fixed dollar benefits, the latter being included in the
accounts of the Company.
A contract owner may choose from among a number of different underlying
mutual fund options. The underlying mutual fund options are not
available to the general public directly. The underlying mutual funds
are available as investment options in variable life insurance policies
or variable annuity contracts issued by life insurance companies or, in
some cases, through participation in certain qualified pension or
retirement plans.
Some of the underlying mutual funds have been established by investment
advisers which manage publicly traded mutual funds having similar names
and investment objectives. While some of the underlying mutual funds
may be similar to, and may in fact be modeled after, publicly traded
mutual funds, the underlying mutual funds are not otherwise directly
related to any publicly traded mutual fund. Consequently, the
investment performance of publicly traded mutual funds and any
corresponding underlying mutual funds may differ substantially.
(c) Security Valuation, Transactions and Related Investment Income
The market value of the underlying mutual funds is based on the closing
net asset value per share at June 30, 2000. The cost of investments
sold is determined on a specific identification basis. Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy
or sell is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date.
(d) Federal Income Taxes
Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with,
operations of the Company which is taxed as a life insurance company
under the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company does not provide for income taxes within the Account. Taxes
are the responsibility of the contract owner upon termination or
withdrawal.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
(e) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if
any, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
(f) Calculation of Annuity Reserves
Annuity reserves are computed for contracts in the variable payout
stage according to industry standard mortality tables. The assumed
investment return is 3.5 percent unless the annuitant elects otherwise,
in which case the rate may vary from 3.5 percent to 7 percent, as
regulated by the laws of the respective states. The mortality risk is
fully borne by the Company and may result in additional amounts being
transferred into the Account by the Company to cover greater longevity
of annuitants than expected. Conversely, if reserves exceed amounts
required, transfers may be made to the Company.
(2) EXPENSES
The Company does not deduct a sales charge from purchase payments received
from the contract owners. However, if any part of the contract value of
such contracts is surrendered, the Company will, with certain exceptions,
deduct from a contract owner's contract value a contingent deferred sales
charge, not to exceed 7% of the lesser of purchase payments or the amount
surrendered, such charge declining 1% per year, to 0%, after the purchase
payment has been held in the contract for 84 months. No sales charges are
deducted on redemptions used to purchase units in the fixed investment
options of the Company.
The following contract charges are deducted by the Company:
For Fidelity Advisor Generations Annuity contracts a mortality and expense
risk charge assessed through the daily unit value calculation that ranges
from an annual rate of .95% to a maximum of 2.20% if all permissible rider
options are utilized. For this contract, the rider options include: (a)
reduced purchase payment; (b) five year CDSC; (c) CDSC waiver; (d) death
benefit and (e) guaranteed minimum income benefit.
For Fidelity Advisor Annuity Select contracts a mortality risk, expense
risk and administration charge assessed through the daily unit value
calculation that ranges from an annual rate of 1.40% to a maximum of 1.55%
if the death benefit option is utilized.
For Fidelity Advisor Annuity Classic contracts a mortality risk, expense
risk and administration charge assessed through the daily unit value
calculation equal to an annual rate of 1.30%. Additionally, a contract
maintenance charge of up to $30, dependent upon contract type and issue
date, is satisfied by surrendering units.
The following table provides mortality, expense and administration charges
by asset fee rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2000:
