The Gunboat Diplomacy of HMS Thunder Child is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its frequent executions, complete lack of public education, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 34.776 billion Sailors are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The frighteningly efficient a Sailor economy, worth a remarkable 3,337 trillion Pounds a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 95,957 Pounds, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 383,830 per year while the poor average 16,112, a ratio of 23.8 to 1.

Convicted felons are forced into slavery for their crimes, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, and eight year-olds with lemonade stands have been known to be locked up on charges of embezzlement. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force. HMS Thunder Child's national animal is the Torpedo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

HMS Thunder Child is ranked 2,903rd in the world and 1st in HMD Bermuda for Most Stationary, with 3,811.70589384 days.
