The Grand HiveWorld of Mr moneymachine is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Hive Governor Jimothy Gibbles with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.574 billion Loyal Servants are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Eceoneid HiveSpire. The average income tax rate is 94.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Money-Hivean economy, worth a remarkable 1,911 trillion Digital Sheckles 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. 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 amazing 290,711 Digital Sheckles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Eight-year-olds can be seen lighting up in public areas, conspiracy theorists allege that the government is spying on them through their carbon monoxide detectors, five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, and the government burgles the houses of holidaying citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mr moneymachine's national animal is the Fennec Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Mr moneymachine is ranked 85,202nd in the world and 181st in 10000 Islands for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,509.77 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
