The Most Serene Republic of Ghost 2 is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 4.69 billion Ghost 2ians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 44.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Ghost 2ian economy, worth 85.8 trillion Ghosts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 18,298 Ghosts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown. Ghost 2's national animal is the Ghost, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ghost 2 is ranked 44,410^th in the world and 2^nd in Chinese Nationalist Party for Safest, scoring 104.59 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
