The Turkey of Ranponian is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Recep Tayyip Erdoğan with an even hand, and notable for its punitive income tax rates and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 6.709 billion Turks have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ankara. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Turkish economy, worth 214 trillion Turkish lire a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Information Technology industry. Average income is 32,002 Turkish lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is the self-declared God of all Ranponian, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has been known to threaten dissenting citizens with a machine gun at press conferences, nervous homeowners have been blamed for rising death rates amongst carol singers and locksmiths, and 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ranponian's national animal is the Gray wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sunni Islam.

Ranponian is ranked 207,633^rd in the world and 216^th in Commonwealth of Liberty for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring zero on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
