The Community of MMM is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 14.809 billion MMMians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient MMMian economy, worth a remarkable 1,592 trillion Golds 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. 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 an impressive 107,514 Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', the national census includes an opt-in to join the government-run dating service, and prankster scientists legally change their names to silly pseudonyms before major discoveries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MMM's national animal is the Elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

MMM is ranked 229,638th in the world and 9,150th in Balder for Safest, scoring 24.55 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
