The Join Lily of TLS 9 is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its digital currency, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed population of 9.043 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 juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 31.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Join Lily economy, worth 337 trillion Join Lilies a year, is led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 37,281 Join Lilies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
The "feminist protest" defence is increasingly common for cases of armed robbery, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience, and half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach. Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TLS 9's national animal is the Join Lily.
TLS 9 is ranked 137,868th in the world and 2,676th in Suspicious for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 713.47 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
