We investigated whether countries with shorter sleep durations have worse health. Study 1 analyzed national sleep durations from 14 past investigations (&lt;i&gt;k&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;= 353) and found that they were not associated with national health. Study 2 collected sleep duration and health data from people from 20 different countries (&lt;i&gt;N&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;= 4,933). Average sleep durations varied substantially between countries (range = 1.57 h). A quadratic relation between sleep duration and health was found in all countries, although the turning points varied between countries. Individuals whose sleep duration was closer to their country&amp;rsquo;s perceived ideal reported better health. The results suggest that the amount of sleep associated with optimal health varies across countries.&lt;/p&gt;
