Heinz Frank Dimmler (14 April 1871 - 6 July 1963) was a Besmenian statesman who served as the second Prime Minister of Besmenia from 1924 to 1940. He was founder and until 1955 first leader of the Besmenian People's Party, a christian democratic and conservative party that under his leadership became one of the most influential parties in Besmenia.

Early Years

Heinz Dimmler was the third of four children of the lawyer Johannes-Frank Dimmler (1828-1903) and his wife Paula, née Mussung (1830-1920). His family was conservative.

Education and political carrer

After leaving school, Dimmler began training as an office worker in an iron foundry. In 1891 he joined the Besmenian Conservative Party. In March 1893 Dimmler signed up with 13 other younger BKP members to attend a course at the Drambenburg National University in Lerbin. There Dimmler successfully studied economics from 1893 to 1896. During his studies he first heard about the social market economy. He liked the idea of the social market economy and wondered whether an introduction to Besmenia and its effects would be possible.

After his return to Besmenia in 1896, Dimmler moved to Laithitaus and worked as an employee in the Ministry of Economic Affairs until 1916. During the Besmenian civil war in 1916, Dimmler and his family fled to New Anea and settled in Eblium. Since the civil war went back in part to the poor economic policy under Wilhelm III, Dimmler continued to work on the idea of the social market economy, and made it his goal to enable an introduction after the end of the civil war. After the civil war ended in 1919, the family returned to Laithitaus. The idea of the social market economy met with little interest in the BKP. Due to internal party disputes, Dimmler and supporters of his idea left the BKP in 1921 and founded the Besmenian People's Party with Dimmler as party chairman.
