The Unfriendly Apparition of Ghost of Stalina is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 13.933 billion Stalinans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 72.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Stalinan economy, worth 227 trillion Vozhds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 16,300 Vozhds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ghost of Stalina's national animal is the disembodied eyebrows and moustache, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ghost of Stalina is ranked 286,400^th in the world and 44^th in Eastern Europe for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,860.88 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
