The Inky Ghosts of Spooky20 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Inky with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, frequent executions, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 11.38 billion Spooky20ians 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, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 46.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Spooky20ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,181 trillion francs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 103,811 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Government ministers are regularly seen in the streets confessing their sins and hammering missiles into plow-shares, the nation's ambassadors often conduct their business in jail cells, Inky claims to be the epitome of family values, and a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spooky20's national animal is the giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Spooky20 is ranked 279,259th in the world and 41st in Pallaith for Most Patriotic, with 0.54 flags saluted per person per day.
