The United States of Walter Jackson is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 9.174 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 large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 79.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Walter Jacksonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,491 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 162,585 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, frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security, a valid legal defense is 'dead men tell no tales', and the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive 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 60,938^th in the world and 2,789^th in The North Pacific for Most Authoritarian, with 892.05 milliStalins.
