Moperville Regional Randomite Board
The Moperville Regional Randomite Board (or "MRRB" for short) is an organisation responsible for the regulation of randomite trading in the region of Moperville.
Location
Meetings of the MRRB have historically been held in a number of different locations, but now take place on the neutral island of Not Very Interesting.
Membership
The following are member nations of the MRRB:
Two former Mopervillian nationstates also possessed randomite:

History
Randomite was first discovered in Randomocitia in its natural state. It was soon discovered that upon refining it could be used to cause useful random occurences. Its possible industrial uses were gradually realised to be practically endless (if unpredictable). For example, mining equipment was discovered that would always discover diamonds and veins of gold, and a type bullet was created that would always hit its target if aimed in just the wrong direction.
Shortly afterwards Randomite was discovered in Northern Blurnsburg due to its proximity to a hot chocolate spring and the former nation of Fox Beings. The MRRB was founded to regulate the trade of Randomite as more and more nations were discovered to possess the material. A number of nationstates banned randomite, claiming they were too happy and productive already to want to be random, whilst others (such as Progalu nations and Markodonia) do not naturally possess the material in large enough quantities to justify large scale mining operations.
Up until this time, little was known of the metascientific properties of randomite, beyond that it emitted a radiation known as randomocity.
Randomocity existed in two forms, versa radiation, and vice radiation. In simple terms, versa radiation was refered to as good "luck", and vice as bad "luck". The refining process existed to remove vice radiation from randomite, because vice causes bad random occurences, such as car crashes.
Then disaster struck. Randomocitia and Blurnsburg were attacked by unknown forces. These forces almost destroyed the Randomocitia capital. From the capital city of Blurnsburg, a war was waged against these forces. No one could ever get a good enough look at what they were. These terrible events triggered the Goo War, during which Blurnsburg revealed the existence of orderonium.
Upon coming into contact with randomite, orderonium generates a tremendous explosion. Orderonium also has a number of disturbing mind altering effects upon sentient beings, and it was therefore ruled that the MRRB would administer a regional ban on orderonium trade.
The last serious conflict that took place involving orderonium and randomite was The Real Big Serious Argument That Everyone Got Tired Of
