The Unidentifiable Vessel of Ghost Ship is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Davy Jones with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 11.748 billion Ghost Shipians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tortuga. The average income tax rate is 21.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Ghost Shipian economy, worth a remarkable 1,225 trillion doubloons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 104,348 doubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Sports fans complain that cricket tests now last an unbearable ten days, excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions, replacement organs are grown in vats, and hockey players who drop their gloves discard them on abandoned baseball mitts. Crime is totally unknown. Ghost Ship's national animal is the seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Ghostism.

Ghost Ship is ranked 20,751^st in the world and 1^st in Ship Graveyard for Highest Food Quality, scoring 112.88 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
