# Nations

Nations are there for towns to work together. Joining a nation also gives you a bonus amount of town claims. The more total residents are in a nation, the more nation bonus there'll be. Nations also have an upkeep like towns. Nation **upkeep starts at $250** per day and is scaled rather quickly as the nation grows.

Creating a nation costs **$375,000** and can be created using:

`/n new [name]`

* \[name] being the name of the nation you wish to create.

You can join a nation using:

`/n join [name]`

* \[name] being the name of the nation you wish to join.

To get information about a nation use:

`/n [name]`

* \[name] being the name of the nation you want information about.
