The Holy Red Abyss of Space Turkey is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by The Holy Reincarnate Mustafa XXXVII with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, infamous sell-swords, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.368 billion Space Turks are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Sky Acropolis of Ankara. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.9%.

The strong Space Turkeyian economy, worth 114 trillion ☪₮oriks a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 83,548 ☪₮oriks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 431,058 per year while the poor average 8,821, a ratio of 48.9 to 1.

Adultery has been made a capital offence, homeless people are frequently charged with trespassing on public property, scenic tours are unheard of after most environmental laws were abolished, and molehills are the only mountains deemed safe enough for the public. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Space Turkey's national animal is the Mole Rat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Revised Ottoman Faith of Beylik.

Space Turkey is ranked 24,248th in the world and 1st in Terrastion for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 66,086.79 Standard Monetary Units.
