The People's Republic of Heisen burg is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Walter White with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, compulsory military service, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.298 billion Walters are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Albuquerque. The average income tax rate is 87.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Walterian economy, worth 156 trillion Crystal Meths a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 120,915 Crystal Meths, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, international collectors know that a grease-stain on a work of art probably means it's passed through Heisen burg, nude art is becoming wildly popular, and a few immigrants are better than no immigrants according to Walter White. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Heisen burg's national animal is the Jesse Pinkman, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Tucoism.

Heisen burg is ranked 26,533^rd in the world and 390^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 237.94 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
