The Schizopilled Queendom of Heijmskringla is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by the Reichsfuhrerin with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.853 billion Heijmskringlans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jomsvikinga. The average income tax rate is 80.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Heijmskringlan economy, worth 752 trillion vekts a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,563 vekts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, the leaders of Heijmskringla are given the nod by their predecessors, trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy, and surgical tape has taken on a distinctly red color. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Heijmskringla's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Sanctum Officium.

Heijmskringla is ranked 40,515th in the world and 44th in Fifth Empire for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,634.75 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
