The Matriarchy of Kocaeli is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its smutty television. The democratic population of 4.344 billion Kocaelians 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.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 35.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Kocaelian economy, worth 161 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 37,177 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Thieves claim they're simply working for the tax agency, a major religion has been named as Kocaeli's national religion, Leader has just been declared ruler of Kocaeli in an international press conference, and Kocaeli has designated Kocaeli City as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kocaeli's national animal is the Kitsune, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kocaeli is ranked 113,915^th in the world and 4^th in Ibaraki for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 43.68 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
