The Ghost nation of Noxtal is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Knox with an even hand, and renowned for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 29.527 billion Noxtalians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Spirituality, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nox. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.7%.

The powerhouse Noxtalian economy, worth 908 trillion Nuts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 30,779 Nuts, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 124,796 per year while the poor average 5,053, a ratio of 24.7 to 1.

Ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools, the government spends its days financing the delocalisation of its own economy, Knox has just been declared ruler of Noxtal in an international press conference, and Noxtal has designated Nox as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Noxtal's national animal is the nightowl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is No.

Noxtal is ranked 269,720^th in the world and 4^th in Iceland for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 10.71 Effective Tax Rate.
