The Narcolepsy of Muppet Brewster is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by The Guru with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 12.993 billion gurus are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Muppet Theatre. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 38.0%.

The a guru economy, worth 680 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,347 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 206,003 per year while the poor average 9,028, a ratio of 22.8 to 1.

Every politician claims to be at least 1% Native a guru, things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence', and concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas". Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Muppet Brewster's national animal is the guru, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Grace.

Muppet Brewster is ranked 259,416th in the world and 47th in The Muppet Show for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -3.16 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
