The The Holy Purple Glitter of Ghost Queen is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Skeletor with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 13.411 billion Ghost Queenians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Duck. The average income tax rate is 75.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ghost Queenian economy, worth 602 trillion Popcorns a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,934 Popcorns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nightly news reports prosaically on the government blindly throwing money at despotic kidnappers, teenagers are making eye contact with each other for the first time in years, old warplanes and tanks that break down can't be repaired since no one makes the parts anymore, and the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ghost Queen's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Lasanga.

Ghost Queen is ranked 65,527^th in the world and 1,017^th in the Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.77 law-abiding acts per hour.
