You said this is a measure, so I assume you are using it in a table visual.  What is the relationhip between Table1 and Table2.  You could try this instead, but will depend on the relatinship.

 

OfficeCombined =
IF (
isblank(MIN ( 'Table1'[Country] ) ),
MIN ( Table2[Country] ),
MIN ( 'Table1'[Country] )
)
