The Mysterious Black Hole of Roless is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by The High King of Roless with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, infamous sell-swords, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.004 billion Rolessians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Law & Order and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atchta. The average income tax rate is 97.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Rolessian economy, worth a remarkable 3,489 trillion Rezzats 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, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. 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 436,019 Rezzats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are deployed to barren deserts to protect small territorial claims, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, residents of newly dried out bays live in fear of leaky dikes, and billions of Rezzats are being blown on orbital weapons development. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Roless's national animal is the Funky badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Funkyism.

Roless is ranked 15,198^th in the world and 26^th in Forest for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 5,852.21 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
