The Republic of Thunderbird 2 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 7.828 billion Thunderbird 2ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tracy Island. The average income tax rate is 61.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Thunderbird 2ian economy, worth 256 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 32,830 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Thunderbird 2 has designated Tracy Island as its capital city, mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and the Federal Council of Thunderbird 2 has been announced as the new Head of State. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thunderbird 2's national animal is the Thunderbird.

Thunderbird 2 is ranked 148,558^th in the world and 20^th in Hailstone for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,254.66 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
