The Ethereal Dominion of King of the Ghosts is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Spectral Sovereign Phantasmor with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and smutty television. The compassionate population of 12.051 billion Ghosts enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crypt City. The average income tax rate is 90.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient King of the Ghostsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,639 trillion Wraithcoins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,031 Wraithcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, the phrase 'spreading like wildfire' is no longer in the public lexicon, where there's smoke there's the King of the Ghostsian Forestry Department, and party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. King of the Ghosts's national animal is the Ethereal Griffon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Cult of the Eternal Veil.

King of the Ghosts is ranked 49,867th in the world and 1st in The New Cipheron for Most Stationary, with 907.27374573332 days.
