The Socialist HOA of Turkey Creek is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Socko with a fair hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.115 billion Turkey Creekers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carrington Green. The average income tax rate is 85.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Turkey Creeker economy, worth 535 trillion dolliras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 253,146 dolliras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Socko is considering changing the Turkey Creeker flag to one with more glitter, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, home renovation projects take decades to complete, and the nation is currently revamping its entire education system. Crime is totally unknown. Turkey Creek's national animal is the creekturkey, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Turkey Creek is ranked 306,230th in the world and 1,553rd in The Communist Bloc for Most Primitive, scoring -530.52 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
