The Join Lily of Sweeze 8 is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory military service. The hard-working population of 11.99 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 prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment is ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.4%.

The strong Join Lily economy, worth 590 trillion Join Lilies a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 49,270 Join Lilies, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

Cold medicines curiously become cheaper when government officials sneeze, Max Barry finally has time for writing books after NationStates was recently outlawed, hundreds of thousands of convicts work as slaves in Sweeze 8's many privately-owned prisons, and dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws. Crime is moderate. Sweeze 8's national animal is the Join Lily, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Sweeze 8 is ranked 151,729^th in the world and 5,617^th in Suspicious for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.24 kickbacks per hour.
