The Republic of Turkenia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alper Akarsu with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, unlimited-speed roads, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed population of 6.837 billion Turkenians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ankara. The average income tax rate is 42.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Turkenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,019 trillion Turkenian lire a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 149,115 Turkenian lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teenagers performing appendectomies on their friends has become a popular schoolyard prank, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got, and Alper Akarsu's reputation is hard as nails. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Turkenia's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Turkenia is ranked 248,177th in the world and 1,135th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -6.13 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
