The Dimwittedness of Muppet Beauregard is a colossal, pleasant nation, ruled by rats with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, zero percent divorce rate, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.89 billion janitors are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Muppet Theatre. The average income tax rate is 35.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient a janitor economy, worth 333 trillion brooms a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Retail, Pizza Delivery, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 42,213 brooms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans, the nation's reputation for treachery has left it sidelined on the international stage, gigantic new prisons are springing up all over the nation, and Rats's new door-knocking campaign has the sweet taste of success. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Muppet Beauregard's national animal is the rat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is well intentioned.

Muppet Beauregard is ranked 30,422nd in the world and 22nd in The Muppet Show for Most Stationary, with 1,334.4481390082 days.
