The Dominion of East Turzikstan is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 922 million Turziks are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Turzikstan City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.

The frighteningly efficient East Turzikstani economy, worth 104 trillion Bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 113,200 Bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.

Rural citizens live in terror of their local village constable, morale within the seismologist community has hit rock bottom, sales of fishnet stockings have reached a record high, and East Lebatuckese luxury goods are plundered by the working class of East Turzikstan. Crime is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. East Turzikstan's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

East Turzikstan is ranked 26,275^th in the world and 106^th in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 6,237.08 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
