The Last Great American Dynasty (stylized in all lowercase) is a song recorded by Taylor Swift, as the third track from her eighth studio album, Folklore, released on July 24, 2020 through Republic Records. It was written by Swift and Aaron Dessner, and produced by the latter.

"The Last Great American Dynasty" is an alternative, indie pop tune propelled by an uptempo arrangement of percussions, slide guitar, strings and glitchy electronic elements. Sung from a third-person perspective, the song provides a satirical anecdote of American socialite Rebekah Harkness, one of the wealthiest women in United States history, who previously owned Swift's Rhode Island estate, and draws parallels between the singer's and Harkness's lives.
