A [[humanoid]] species native to [[Beta III]].
Thousands of years ago, this species possessed highly advanced technology, including lighting panels, computers, and heat beams capable of reaching into orbit.
During this time, their leader, a philosopher named Landru, became deeply concerned that the wars raging on Beta III would destroy all life on the planet. To solve this problem, he built an extremely sophisticated computer, also called Landru. Landru the computer absorbed the members of Beta III's society, eventually exerting absolute control over the thoughts and feelings of the entire planetary population. The computer also created "the Body", similar to a hive mind, which eliminated hate, fear, and conflict, put an end to war, disease, and crime.
Though policed by the Lawgivers, the people moved through their lives in a blissful daze, and nothing changed for almost six thousand years. After the machine, Landru, was destroyed by [[James T. Kirk|Kirk]], a team of sociologists were left behind to help the people rebuild their culture.
