The Free Land of Private Walker is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Joe Walker with a fair hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, complete lack of public education, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, democratic population of 11.947 billion Walkerians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The minute government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Law & Order and Public Transport are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Alley. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The strong Private Walkerian economy, worth 632 trillion Fivers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 52,914 Fivers, with the richest citizens earning 7.6 times as much as the poorest.

Torture is illegal, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, President Joe Walker has just been declared ruler of Private Walker in an international press conference, and Private Walker has designated The Alley as its capital city. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Private Walker's national animal is the Ram, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Private Walker is ranked 11,105^th in the world and 4^th in Walmington on Sea for Most Stationary, with 1,855.47004860952 days.
