The Nepotistic Employment of Muppet Scooter is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by efficiency with an even hand, and notable for its lack of airports, enslaved workforce, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 13.685 billion gofers have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Muppet Theatre. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.2%.

The a gofer economy, worth 770 trillion back-stage passes 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 slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. 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 56,297 back-stage passes, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 228,723 per year while the poor average 9,211, a ratio of 24.8 to 1.

Efficiency is too busy listening to praise to get any work done, children have nightmares about the eerie red glow and constant whirring of newly-installed machines, the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle, and an aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time. Crime is a serious problem. Muppet Scooter's national animal is the gofer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Fozzie Bear jokes.

Muppet Scooter is ranked 316,574th in the world and 47th in The Muppet Show for Safest, scoring 7.11 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
