The Empire of FF Thunder is a large, efficient nation, remarkable for its burgeoning penguin population. The hard-working population of 124 million FF Thunderians 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 relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.6%.

The very strong FF Thunderian economy, worth 6.43 trillion pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 51,847 pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 158,382 per year while the poor average 13,155, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. FF Thunder's national animal is the penguin.

FF Thunder is ranked 160,047^th in the world and 1^st in Thunder Realm for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 349.97 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
