The Community of BoxGhostia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its national health service, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 15.462 billion BoxGhostians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 86.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse BoxGhostian economy, worth a remarkable 1,145 trillion Boxes a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 74,069 Boxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

An underground movement of cigarette smokers has sprung up in response to a government ban, the parliament building has installed a revolving door, movie producers send film critics wads of cash in their morning newspapers in anticipation of gushing praise, and a primitive society is being eroded as its youth flock to the modern world. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BoxGhostia's national animal is the Box Ghosts, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

BoxGhostia is ranked 50,572^nd in the world and 18^th in Scandinavia for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 3,881.82 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
