The United States of Walter Jackson is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, triple-decker prams, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 13.304 billion Walter Jacksonians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 69.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Walter Jacksonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,572 trillion dollars a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 193,394 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes, the request to "give us our daily bread" can only be fulfilled six days out of seven, naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, and baby boys who pick up pink crayons are sent to a psychiatric ward. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Walter Jackson's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Christian.

Walter Jackson is ranked 247,511^th in the world and 10,626^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -9.49 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
