The Republic of Ectoplasm is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 5.35 billion Ectoplasmians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 21.4%.
The Ectoplasmian economy, worth 293 trillion rubledollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 54,872 rubledollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ectoplasm's national animal is the hawk.
Ectoplasm is ranked 74,562nd in the world and 2,003rd in Suspicious for Most Corrupt Governments, with 23.15 kickbacks per hour.
