The Ghost of Mr Saltarian is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, free-roaming dinosaurs, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.998 billion Mr Saltarianians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 34.9%.
The strong Mr Saltarianian economy, worth 138 trillion golds a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,034 golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
Prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, traffic jams are a common sight due to construction work from a massive overhaul of the nation's freeways, policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence', and chicken farmers must rise before the sun every day to gag their cockerels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mr Saltarian's national animal is the ghoul, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Mr Saltarian is ranked 203,957th in the world and 358th in The Blades for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 335.98 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
