The Dictatorship of Walter Heisenberg is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Heisenberg with an iron fist, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 23.237 billion Walter Heisenbergians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Walter Heisenberg City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Walter Heisenbergian economy, worth a remarkable 8,522 trillion ounces a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 366,757 ounces, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,740,146 per year while the poor average 45,616, a ratio of 38.1 to 1.

People say that smog must be good for you because of its healthy green colour, citizens must pay to enjoy Walter Heisenberg's pristine beaches, it is typical to be greeted by a string of curse words in Walter Heisenbergian restaurants, and strange lights seen in the sky are officially regarded as weather balloons or hoaxes and nothing else. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Walter Heisenberg's national animal is the badger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Heisenberg.

Walter Heisenberg is ranked 291,065th in the world and 5,189th in The East Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -742.2 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
