Beta III's advanced Humanoid civilization was managed for several hundred years by a massive central computer complex built by the planet's leading philosopher/scientist Landru. When an investigation team from the USS Enterprise discovered the social stagnation produced by this computer, they induced the master computer to self-distruct to free the planet's populace. Since that time, the civilization has returned to a normal path of social evolution and is currently an associate member of the Confederation.
