Geography
Cookesland is not a very large country but has a very varied terrain. In the north there are grassy plains, the central part of the nation consists of temperate woodlands, and the south there are dense rainforests. the eastern region is mostly coastal scrub and in the west, highlands.
The entire land border of Cookeland is made up of mountain while the western coasts are generally flat and more tropical. The majority of the population lives in the western part of the country on the coastal plain. Most of the land border around Cookesland except the Northern Pass is made of mountain ranges, because of this Cookesland has always been a bit of an isolated country.
Culture & Customs
Cookeslandic culture is not very well known outside of the country. It is customary to go by your middle name in Cookesland and simply use your first name as an initial. e.g. John Michael Smith becomes J. Michael Smith. Cookeslanders are also fond of good food an cooking (no pun intended) is a great pastime of many citizens.
The National Sport is Baseball and most towns do have a team, but Soccer is quickly becoming quite popular due in part to Cookesland's entry into the World Cup.
International Politics
Cookesland for the most part is a right-wing state, most notably because of its Anti-Abortion Stance and Anti-Recreational Drug laws and its relaxed gun laws. This is not always the case because of the extensive civil rights the nation possesses including Gay Marriage and Gender recognition stances.
Cookesland care or its enviroment and is home to many envirometalists. All over the country, especially in Saria Island, there are nmerous parks for people to enjoy.
