The current population estimate of the country is 84,680,273 inhabitants, and the country spans a total land area of 783,365 square kilometers, or 302,535 square miles.

The highest point within Turkey is Mount Ararat, reaching an altitude of 5,137 meters, or 16,854 feet. Lake Van, the largest lake within the country, with a surface area of 3,755 square kilometers, or 1,450 square miles. The lake reaches a maximum length of 74 miles. When it comes to the climate of Turkey, it is continental near the coasts and temperate elsewhere. There are also plenty of hot, drier parts of the land as well.The large amounts of habitat and ecosystem diversity causes for great amounts of species diversity as well. There is believed to be over 80,000 animal species that can be found within Turkey.

Some examples of the domesticated animals of Turkey are horses, donkeys, cattle, sheep, the Angora cat, rabbit and goat, and the national dog breeds of Kangal, Malakisi, and Akbaş.

The most popular exports to come from the country are cars, delivery trucks, refined petroleum, jewelry, non-knit women’s suits, insulated wire, buses, and vehicle parts.

Turkey has a heavily urban population, with three quarters of the country’s entire population living in cities and towns.

It is estimated that there are 47 different ethnic groups living within Turkey, with Kurds representing the largest non-Turkish group.
