The Join Lily of 43-Sweeze is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, remarkable for its suspicion of poets. The hard-working population of 11.363 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 Defense, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 21.9%.

The Join Lily economy, worth 410 trillion Join Lilies a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 36,118 Join Lilies, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.

Society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, trying to toast marshmallows in an electric fireplace just isn't the same, cotton candy made from genuine cotton cellulose doesn't quite satisfy, and employees who skip lunch to avoid sub-par cafeteria food risk getting fired. Crime is moderate. 43-Sweeze's national animal is the Join Lily, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

43-Sweeze is ranked 252,745^th in the world and 7,446^th in Suspicious for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.41 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
