The Armed Republic of Turkesistan is a very large, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, aversion to nipples, and suspicion of poets. The devout population of 103 million Turkesistanis 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 prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment are ignored. The average income tax rate is 30.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Turkesistanian economy, worth 3.54 trillion Tunds 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is 34,371 Tunds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Failed genetic experiments wreak havoc as they roam the countryside, strict term limits have been applied to all elected offices, naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, and parents who refuse to vaccinate their children are given a short jail sentence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Turkesistan's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Turkesistan is ranked 231,868^th in the world and 1,072^nd in Europeia for Most Beautiful Environments, with 395.54 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
