The Republic of 1957 Ford Thunderbird is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, unlimited-speed roads, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.492 billion 1957 Ford Thunderbirdians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Spirituality, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.6%.

The thriving 1957 Ford Thunderbirdian economy, worth 124 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 83,724 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 278,666 per year while the poor average 18,744, a ratio of 14.9 to 1.

The banshee wail foretells skies of death, glancing at the car radio display while driving is treated as attempted homicide, anyone can get ahead in life if they want to, and the 1957 Ford Thunderbirdian war navy contains an oddly large number of luxury yachts and cruise liners. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. 1957 Ford Thunderbird's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

1957 Ford Thunderbird is ranked 83,049^th in the world and 8^th in Auto Auctions for Highest Average Incomes, with 83,724.83 Standard Monetary Units.
