The United States of Thundercity is a large, safe nation, notable for its burgeoning Cow population. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 56 million Thundercityians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 18.1%.

The Thundercityian economy, worth 2.74 trillion Men a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is 49,007 Men, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is almost non-existent. Thundercity's national animal is the Cow, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Thundercity is ranked 150,544^th in the world and 405^th in The Wellspring for Most Primitive, scoring -53.85 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
