The Join Lily of TLS 28 is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, unlimited-speed roads, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 13.658 billion Join Lily are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 28.6%.

The Join Lily economy, worth 605 trillion Join Lilies a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,349 Join Lilies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Kids refer to anything below the neck as "the parts that shall not be named", the silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of Join Lily democracy, it's believed that women's brains will overheat if they think for themselves, and men avoid even so much as looking at female colleagues. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TLS 28's national animal is the Join Lily, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

TLS 28 is ranked 159,809^th in the world and 413^th in neck for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 28.64 Effective Tax Rate.
