The Republic of Turkiea is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.892 billion Turkieans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Industry, and Education. The average income tax rate is 63.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Turkiean economy, worth 136 trillion lire a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 72,050 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The blood, sweat, and tears of poor Turkieans make research institutes rich, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, lovesick people are told 'it's not them, it's you', and it is illegal for a parent to tell a child to stop eating their boogers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Turkiea's national animal is the dolphin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Turkiea is ranked 224,568^th in the world and 224^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Authoritarian, with 481.01 milliStalins.
