The Socialist HOA of Turkey Creek is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Socko with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, unlimited-speed roads, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 9.258 billion Turkey Creekers enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carrington Green. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Turkey Creeker economy, worth a remarkable 2,319 trillion dolliras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 250,508 dolliras, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners, dissing one's former country is a prerequisite to apply for Turkey Creeker citizenship, and national foreign policy involves significant amounts of hand wringing. 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 141,031^st in the world and 73^rd in The Communist Bloc for Largest Black Market, with 1.31 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
