The Fourth Empire of UltimaWeapon is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Empress Liselotte Waltz with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, keen interest in outer space, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 47.507 billion Weaponians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The minute, corrupt, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Klonio. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Weaponian economy, worth an astonishing 22,133 trillion Krojiras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 465,895 Krojiras, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Many friends and relatives of Empress Liselotte Waltz have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, tumbleweeds are seen blowing through the nation's airspace, the words 'private' and 'enterprise' must never appear in the same sentence, and students who do not recite the national anthem each morning have to drop and give their teacher 50. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. UltimaWeapon's national animal is the Komoco, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

UltimaWeapon is ranked 832^nd in the world and 1^st in The Eternal Order for Highest Average Incomes, with 465,895.68 Standard Monetary Units.
