The Join Lily of TLS 23 is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, devout population of 13.766 billion Join Lily have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Administration, and Spirituality also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 20.5%.

The Join Lily economy, worth 617 trillion Join Lilies a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,790 Join Lilies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Cheese has become the new icon of political dissent, newlywed misogynists complain about their wives keeping their maiden names, the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, and weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force. TLS 23's national animal is the Join Lily, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

TLS 23 is ranked 167,262^nd in the world and 3^rd in BFB Teams for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.16 percentage of bribes refused.
