The Republic of Here to Join is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.822 billion Here to Joinians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare, Welfare, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The strong Here to Joinian economy, worth 80.4 trillion rubledollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Gambling. Average income is 44,132 rubledollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 284,438 per year while the poor average 2,766, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Here to Join's national animal is the hawk, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Here to Join is ranked 58,277th in the world and 445th in Suspicious for Highest Food Quality, scoring 31.11 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
