The compassionate population of 17.337 billion Ghosts enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

Everything stops come summertime, the Messiah (formerly known as Brian) is a mayoral candidate, no one questions why the chicken crossed the road anymore, and the numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels. 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.
